Tiger Stripes (Huban) represent a distinct variegation pattern within orchid artistry (Yi Lan). Variegation manifests in three primary forms:

• Early-onset variegation (Qianmingxing): Patterns appear in young growth

• Late-onset variegation (Houmingxing): Patterns intensify with maturity

• Fading variegation (Houyunxing): Initial vividness that darkens over time

Among these, late-onset variegation is prized for its exceptional stability. The patterns grow increasingly vibrant and exquisite as the plant develops, making this form particularly cherished by orchid connoisseurs.

Flowering Period: November to February. Easy to grow, easy to bloom
Note: Planter not included and shipped bare root with moss.

We will try to select the orchids with buds for you if they are during flowering period, but most orchids are shipped without flower buds. 
Orchids will be shipped bare root wrapped with moss. When you receive them, the roots will be dry, this is normal. 
If the roots are too dry, please soak them for a few minutes in water and plant them in a good orchid medium. The orchids should be going into thriving soon.
