Paphiopedilum glanduliferum var. gardineri

Paphiopedilum gardneri is a small multifloral Paph from New Guinea. It is often put togetherwith Paphiopedilum praestans (or wilhelminae or glanduliferum).

This species is darker than praestans (but often looks almost identical), but it is also a compact grower that will produce up to 4 flowers on the best grown specimens. It is easy to grow and takes up much less space than many standard multiflorals.

Just grow it warm and bright, like most other multis.

PLEASE NOTE: Since this is a Seedling Population (not a Mericlone which produces exact duplicates), the picture is for illustration purposes only. No two plants will be the same from this cross, and they will flower in a range of possibilities coming from the two parents.
