Japanese Egret Orchid Seeds - 5 Seeds

 JAPANESE EGRET ORCHID SEEDS   You are bidding on 5 seeds     Also known as Habaneira Radiata.  One of Japans most famous orchids.  The flower looks much like a snowy egret with its display plumage puffed out.  Despite being well-known worldwide , ironically this species is imperilled in the wild.  The Japanese Egret flower is a small terrestrial orchid of grassy wetlands and seepage slopes in moderate to high mountains throughout Japan, the Korean Peninsula and some parts of eastern China.   Exquisite white flowers on flower spikes that are generally 12-23cm long, occasionally longer.  The spike continues upwards until it releases an unbranched flower spike which can be up to 50cm tall.  Each spike will usually produce 2 or 3 flowers but it can sometimes be as many as 8.  The plants produce strap-like, dark green leaves.   Over summer, new bulbs form on short underground stems while the old bulb slowly dies away.  A healthy bulb can produce up to 3 replacement bulbs.  The seeds are very fine and very small, almost dust like so please take care when handling them.   Sowing instructions will be emailed after purchase Shipping Options: Post Office FastMail  (delivery in 4-5 working days)R39.00 for the first item (5 seeds), R5.00 per additional item
