Rhynchostylis gigantea
An exceptional genus of fragrant flowered beauties. The foliage
is interesting, with a fan shape and recurving deeply channeled leaves, striated
with lighter veining. The inflorescence is a hanging ’foxtail’ of many
fragrant white flowers splashed with purple. Multiple spikes are typical. Winter
bloomer. Keep in bright indirect light and water often. Normal colored. An exceptional and rare clone of this beautiful species.
While the typical form produces a ’foxtail’ of fragrant white flowers
splashed with purple, this form is stunningly pure white.
An extremely handsome clone of this beautiful fragrant flowered species. Rather than the typical white flowers splashed with purple, this clone has bright red flowers! Even the plant, which is fan shaped with leathery, prominently veined leaves, is tinted reddish. Keep in bright indirect light and water often. |
