Bletilla striata 'Triple Lips' P9

A hardy, low-growing orchid forming clumps 30–40 cm tall with a gentle spread. Its soft pink flowers with three distinctive “lips” appear in late spring above elegant green foliage. Best grown in humus-rich, well-drained soil that stays reliably moist, in partial shade or dappled sunlight. Protect from harsh afternoon sun and ensure winter mulch in colder climates. Nectar-rich blooms attract bees and other pollinators, adding both color and wildlife interest to shady borders, containers, or woodland-style gardens.
