Epidendrum radicans ‘Mauve’ NEW

Description: A hardy clumping epiphytic orchid that produces clusters of flowers on the end of 1 metre long stems (also known as reed orchids) makes a beautiful addition to any Australian garden. The name crucifix refers to the cross shaped markings on the flowers.

Pollinating insects and birds love the brilliant flowers, especially butterflies.

These orchids can be grown in pots, hanging baskets and/or in rocky corners of the garden and they will provide brilliant colour to your garden year round, even in the cooler months. Native to South America, they thrive in warmer climates but also can be grown successfully throughout Australia.
