Shutennou 朱天王

Rated 5.00 out of 5 based on 5 customer ratings
(5 customer reviews)

$40.00

Neofinetia falcata Shutennou (“Red Emperor”) is the most popular pink-blooming variety of fukiran.  Flowers are characterized by a dark pink peduncle and nectary spur with a pink blush on the flowers.  Leaves are typically standard size, but I have seen some with very small leaves and some with enormous leaves.  Some of the difference is due to differences in culture.  The biggest leaves I have seen were on a plant grown BESIDE a north-facing window!  The plant still bloomed faithfully every year.  Another observation I have made is that Shutennou reaches blooming size at four leaves rather than six for reasons unknown to me, so a blooming plant can be quite small.

These plants are at least 4 growths (previously a $60 value).

As with many of the colored flower varieties, Shutennou is hard to divide.  Roots tend to develop well on the mother growth and the babies are slow to develop their own roots.  For the sake of the plants, I’m selling these in the beautiful bunches that they are, so they are PRICED PER PLANT.  It’s a lower price per growth than I have offered in the past.

For detailed instructions on care, please read my Neo Care Sheet.

    Vigorously growing, easy flowering neofinetia. The pink in the flowers is really special!

    I have been waiting for this orchid to come back in stock and am so happy with my new plant. It has a great root system on it and is a beautiful addition to my collection!

    Hello, what does it mean “number of growths and number of plants”?
    Do you ship to Toronto, Canada?
    How much shipping cost to Richmond Hill, Toronto?
    The price you shows are U.S. fund?
    Please advise
    Thanks a lot

      Hi Keith! The number of growths is the number of fans on the plant. The more growths, the bigger the plant (obviously), and then the more flowers. Sorry I can’t ship to Canada, but I am going to Toronto in October to give a talk at the orchid society there. Also, if you ever go to the US, it’s legal for you as a private citizen to carry orchids (no soil) across the border. And yes, prices are all US$. Thanks very much for your interest!

    Received a lovely plant, well grown and healthy, even nicer than expected. I can’t wait to see it bloom.
