Chiloschista viridiflava (green)

Description

Chiloschista viridiflava is a leafless orchid from SE Asia that looks like a big mass of roots with flowers coming out of the center.  They are strangely easy to grow by watering regularly, and keeping them in intermediate light.  Although they prefer warm temperatures, mine are growing great going down to 55 degrees on winter nights.  The flower spikes are long, cascading from the center of the plant and sporting many wonderfully fragrant, almost buttercup-like flowers.  Chiloschista viridiflava has several color forms; this one is a pale green–really beautiful!

Plants are blooming size, however the picture shows an example, not the actual plant you will receive.
