Live Orchid Plant: Cymbidium sinense ‘QiHei’ Bare Root

Live Cymbidium sinense ‘QiHei’ Orchid Plant

The undisputed emperor of black-flowered Chinese ink orchids (Cymbidium sinense). Flowers are an extremely deep inky purple, almost pure black, with a hidden crimson glow. Under light, it shines like black satin—widely regarded as the absolute ceiling of black Molan orchids. The classic ultra-powerful “ink orchid” fragrance explodes the moment it opens, carrying for hundreds of feet and lingering for over a week.

Bullet-proof & easy-care for orchid lovers: shade-loving, thrives on north/east windowsills, office desks, and indoor growing all year. Water only when bone-dry—almost unkillable. Your order will bring home a plant that gets darker and more fragrant every year.
