Paphiopedilum armeniacum 'Shenandoah' AM/AOS

PLANTS IN BLOOM OR BUD

 

Updated: January 17, 2009

THE ORCHID WORLD IS CHANGING... The day of the large orchid firms that provide hobby growers with a diverse variety of orchids and the supplies to grow them is in decline. Energy costs for heating, cooling, and maintaining large greenhouse ranges are prohibitive. Consequently, we are seeing the rise of smaller more specialized companies that focus on certain genera. Woodstream Orcids is one of a handful of United States companies that specialize in breeding and producing Paphiopedilum and Phragmipediums. When you are buying Paphs and Phrags from us there is a very good chance they originated in our breeding program and represent our unique scientific and artist approach to breeding and production.

This page represents a new opportunity for the majority of our customers who may never visit our nursery to purchase plants in bloom or in bud directly from us. At this time of year we have between 500 and 1,000 (maybe more) Paphs and Phrags coming into bloom. As plants bloom we grade them according to quality and usefulness in our future breeding and price them accordingly. These blooming plants are living art and are created and established through the scientifc production practices we employ from seed germination in our own dedicated labs through our own unique cultivation practices. Many of these plants hae been grown from 3-5 years to get them to produce their first bloom. Since they are seedlings, each one is one of a kind.

We intend to post images of plants in bloom ready for sale. In most cases the images are taken after the flower form is set. The Paph flowers last a minimum of 3-4 weeks, and often much longer (just came across a plant that has been in bloom since October 10, 2008 and it still looks fresh 13 weeks later). We actually record the date the flower first opens on a tags in each pot. While Phrag flowers last 2-3 weeks in general, they are sequential blooming and will ususally have new blooms on the way.

When ordering these plants, please provide the plant code AND the name of the plant. We will ship to you at the beginning of the next week. Our minimum order is $50 (domestic shipping only) and we guarantee safe winter shipping ONLY if Express service is used. If temperatures are near or above freezing, Priority Mail shipping should be safe, depending upon your location. We are charged more to ship to the west, so shipping charges are higher to more distant regions. Currently, teh country is experiencing bitter cold. We will hold your plant for you until the weather moderates.
