SVO 11288     NEW
Den. Micro Chip

This is a great windowsill plant as the temperatures in your home are just about ideal for its best growth.  It also is a vigorous grower and forms very floriferous plants in a few short years.  The small plants (I must say, “are cute”) they bloom in a 3” pot and the flowers last, last, and last.  This is a primary hybrid with the two species as parents, they are (Den. normanbyense x Den. aberrans). Each of these species are from New Guinea… very exotic.

SVO 12013t      NEW
(Diac. bicornutum 'SVO' AM/AOS x Diac. bicornutum 'The Virgin')

Recent nomenclature changes have now classified Diacrium as Caularthron (Cau.).  On a trip to Trinidad and Tobago I was reminded of my fascination with bicornutum. In the 1990s we made many first, second and a few third-generation hybrids with this species. I collected many good specimens and ‘SVO received an AM/AOS for its exceptional flower size, shape, and high flower count. Because this is quite rare in cultivation, we are pleased to offer these. Growing this species well requires that you understand the plants need to have the roots dry out in-between watering. Best results are obtained by using a very coarse potting media or grow them in a hanging basket. For best results water and fertilize more frequently June through October, during their natural the wet season. From November through May, water half as frequently as you would other Cattleya plants. This is to safeguard root survival through winter.  During this time maintain humidity at 50% or better. Repotting should only be done with the onset of new roots. In addition, these have been treated (t) with oryzalin to help induce higher ploidy to the progeny. Can you imagine the quality of 4n bicornutum? If you are a Cattleya species grower, this is a must have.

SVO 10903  NEW
(Lyc. Corrimal 'Malcolm' AM/AOS x Lyc. Suave 'SVO')

The 'living bouquet' idea with many flowers from small plants is the plan here. The flowers of Corrimal (Lyc. aromatica x Lyc. macrophylla) 'Malcolm' are beautiful!  The plant is a prolific bloomer, producing 5-6 flowers per bulb in spring. Suave (Lyc. suaveolens x Lyc. campbellii) is amazing, with many flower spikes per bulb.  Excellent vigor from this cross. These small plants will produce impressive bouquets of flowers in the spring. In summer, warm conditions, 65-75 nights and 75-90 days are perfect. Frequent watering is important. late spring and summer, keeping the media moist.  In fall and winter allow the potting media to dry out well between waterings and the plants will naturally drop their leaves in late winter.
