We first exhibited these spectacular showy unique plants at Bloom where their brilliance won us a coveted Gold Medal.Working with one the world’s top breeders we are delighted to make these unique plants available for the first time. Calanthe are hardy orchids with magnificent flowers that often boast a clove-like fragrance. These are very rare orchids in the wild. Although you may be under the impression that hardy orchids are hard to grow, calanthe are not. Calanthe orchids prefer light shade and will flower best in slightly moist,rich garden soil but they also tolerate very dark dry shade. They are very easy-to-grow shade perennials that multiply into very large clumps clothed in small but plentiful long spikes that carry dozens of flowers in shades of yellow, pink,red and white.
