Psychopsis Mariposa '3-lip'
Strong, well-established plants of Psychopsis Mariposa ‘3-lip’
with a budding flower spike and several vigorous new growths.
This special peloric form produces noticeably larger and fuller flowers than the normal form due to its three lip-like floral segments – a real eye-catcher for any collection.
Psychopsis are known for their sequentially blooming flower spikes: a green flower spike can continue producing new blooms again and again for years and should therefore not be cut off.
They thrive in bright, warm to intermediate conditions, with even moisture and good air movement. Grower descriptions of ‘Three Lip’ characterize this form as very floriferous and long-blooming; Psychopsis flower spikes can continue blooming over a long period.
An exceptional collector’s orchid with strong growth, developing buds, and especially large, striking flowers.
