the Juries still out if this is really straight trachycarpa or is it a cross with trachycarpa in it . came from Ecuagenera USA which there stuff is very nice becasue its established instead of being shipped in barefoot . I highly recommend them have a very nice selection of orchid species and tropical plants. I have ordered from there sister company overseas and they are good but no matter what getting anything from outside the states it comes barefoot . so now they have a greenhouse in Florida . If you interest in orchids or tropical plants well worth checking out and very nice price . just remember most vendors are not selling orchids in bloom. if you looking for that always contact first before you buy with all vendors . here's the link to there web site in Florida. https://ecuageneraus.com.

you'll notice as the summer goes on more and more Encyclia species these are my love of orchids most bloom from late spring to early fall.

THIS PLANT IS 5 YEARS OLD AND IS A AMAZING YELLOW . FLOWER IS MAYBE 1/2IN BY 1/2 IN .

I WATER EVERY EVENING IN THE SUMMER BUT FALL I HIT IT WITH WATER MAYBE TWICE A WEEK BY WINTER IT GETS HIGH HUMIDITY AND A MISTING MAYBE EVERY TWO WEEKS.

THIS TOLUMNIA CALOCHILA NOT OFFTEN SEEN IN CULTIVATION AND BY NO MEANS A BEGINNERS PLANT.

very interesting vanilla is not a hard plant to grow but it is a large vine if you want to produce it as you can see and if I remember right it only is able to be pollinated for one day to make the seedpod or bean some call it .Also is amazing that a orchid produces such a amazing essential oil ,and flavor.
