Bletilla striata 'White Pearl' - Pure, pristine white orchids occur at the upper parts of flowering stems over medium to dark green attractive pleated broad swords. 'White Pearl' is a vibrant grower clumping with quicker increase than other cultivars. And even after the flowers have passed the leaves are very handsome. Site your Urn Orchid in afternoon shade planted in fertile moisture retaining soil to which organic matter has been added. Once established Bletilla demonstrates some drought tolerance. Though we have listed a height of 18 to 24 inches in the happiest circumstance your Urn Orchid may rise to 30-inches. In the north be certain to plant Bletilla striata at least 4 inches deep. An organic mulch will be beneficial. Bletilla striata is of Asian origin but 'White Pearl' is a selection. Established pot-grown orchid via division.
