Paphiopedilum Pinocchio (glaucophyllum x primulinum) secvential/multiflower

A primary hybrid of two botanical species, with Paph. glaucophyllum as the seminal parent and Paph. primulinum (a Critically Endangered species in its natural habitat, listed on the IUCN Red List) as the pollinating parent, Paphiopedilum Pinocchio is a horticultural taxon that delights with successive blooms, during which each flower can remain on the floral stem for 4-5 weeks, compensating for the lack of fragrance through the spectacle offered.
It is perhaps among the most popular hybrids of the genus, being also vigorous plants and perfectly recommendable for beginners in orchid growing, developing remarkably both under artificial lighting conditions and under natural light.
An important aspect is the need to change the substrate frequently, at least once a year, as it does not tolerate the aging of the culture medium, much less its drying and compaction.
Height with pot included: 35-50 cm
Pot diameter: 12 cm
Note: Because it is a hybrid, both the leaves and flowers show color variations.

The decorative vase is not included in the price.
