Dendrobium Jaquelyn Thomas type orchids are traditional cut-flower varieties. Prolific bloomers with medium to large plant body, these were primarily bred for cut-flower production, but have grown in popularity as pot-plants. Year-round blooming can be expected.
Each variety with a UH code has been developed by the University of Hawaii and has undergone preliminary trials by the Orchideology Department. Uniform and productive, we consider these plants to be the staple for all cut-flower as well as the pot-plant businesses in the State of Hawaii.

These orchid seedlings are grown in 98-cell trays with a minimum of 90 plants per tray. One variety per tray only. Average plant height ranges from 3 to 5 inches (or 7.5 to 12.5 centimeters). Minimum order is 1 tray. For our own production we transplant these to 3.5" square pots, but some people may prefer to transplant them into 2.25" pots.
The average growing to blooming time based on Hawaii conditions is 7 to 10 months.

Codes starting with "M" are mericlones. All others are hybrids (i.e., produced by seed). Descriptions for hybrids indicate the general outcome of crossing. Variations may occur.
