Nature's Masterpiece, orchid species Phalaenopsis tetraspis C1- a living canvas. Now ready to bloom, this extraordinary orchid showcases an ever-changing display of red and white petals. From spots to fully colored flowers in a myriad of patterns, each bud offers a delightful mystery. Mildly fragrant with a hint of mango, this must-have orchid is a world of surprise!

- May produce 1-2 flowers so you can get a glimpse of flower color/size
- Phalaenopsis Species Mericlone

- Flower Size: currently small, about 1 inch - full maturity 2-3"
