Anoectochilus formosanus (Jewel Orchid)

Beautiful mottled leaves with a copper pink underside! A great plant to add to the collection or to your terrarium display.

These plants have thicker leaves and are very robust thanks to their polyploid genetics. This species flowers in the spring, summer or fall months, producing a tall 8-12" spike with unique shaped white flowers.

Native to Taiwan, this species prefers shady conditions. Water when the potting mix approaches dryness in order to keep moist without over saturating. Lightly fertilize when growing in sphagnum moss (once every third watering at most) and more frequently in bark mix.

Note: The plant you receive will be planted in either sphagnum moss or bark mix.
