Statuesque and striking blooms appear in May on strong, tall stems and flower through until July. Foliage is borne underneath in sword-like clumps with intricate and eye-catching mottled marks and lasts from March to September. A sensational, rare, and exotic looking orchid bloom for your garden.Furthermore, you can be confident when you purchase, that these beauties have been grown ethically. Sadly, indiscriminate collecting of these unusual and exciting plants has led to their near extinction in the wild so sustainable sourcing is vital. Grow them in a pot for at least the first year to allow them to fully establish before planting out. Prefer moist, well-drained and humus rich soil which benefits from a spot in dappled shade (to emulate their natural, woodland environment). A hardy, deciduous perennial which will naturalise in the right conditions and provides a valuable source of sustenance to pollinators. H: 60cm S: 50cm.
