Stanhopea graveolens
These fragrant flowers are cream-yellow and covered with burgundy spots, and the sculptural cream-white lip is marked at its base by vibrant orange. This flower is similar in shape to Stanhopea wardii, but slightly larger in size and without the pronounced "eye spots". The fragrance is similar to sweet cinnamon and milder than other Stanhopeas. The plants offered here are well-established in their three inch pots, which may be bottomless to allow the inflorescence to emerge. The plants should be potted into a basket (provided) when the blooms finish. . Temperature Tolerant. July - August blooming. Species from Central America.

Stanhopea occulata
As well-known for its wild appearance as for its powerful fragrance, this Central to South American species is also very easy to grow under intermediate to cool conditions. Dark spots that look like eyes give it the name oculata. Spikes bloom downward, so they are best grown in open baskets lined with moss. Flowers last just a few days, so it is worthwhile to grow them into large specimens with multiple spikes, often blooming in succession. Cool to Intermediate. Species from Central and South America.
