- Product number: 721730.1
- Origin: North Asia

Beautiful subtle plant from North Asia (Japan and surroundings). This orchid has its lowest petal in the shape of a flying bird: fantastic! The flowers grow in clusters of 2-10 on one stem. Immediately after receipt, plant the tubers with the top facing upwards in regular potting soil, preferably made airier with coco peat, keep normally moist and give it a warm spot (out of the sun). On very hot days, the plants can be placed outdoors.
