FYI, we can't ship safely if the daytime highs at the destination address are below freezing.This one is Miltassia Charles M Fitch 'Izumi' AM/AOS, a Blooming Size orchid that puts out lovely flowers. A member of the oncidium family, this orchid (Brs varrucosa x Milt spectabilis) blooms twice a year when mature and pretty much grows like the proverbial weed.The flowers are just amazing -- relatively large, somewhat spidery and simply stunning.The color is a wonderful mottled lavender/purple on the petals and sepals, with a little olive green in the background; the large lip is a stunning lavender with some spots in the center.Mature plants can have 6 to 8 flowers per bloom spike and we have seen some grown up specimens with a dozen or more spikes all at once. Spectacular!This one is a clone of the award winning Miltassia Charles. M. Fitch 'Izumi' AM/AOS. It is near blooming size, likely to flower within 18 months or so. It is freshly repotted in a 4 inch pot. They are not in flower now.These are easy to grow. Medium light and water are best, fertilize weakly twice a month.
