Renanthera ?

[Kali Hibiscus]

Hello everyone !

I am in love with this species and maybe some hybrids ( have not seen hybrid I am head over heels for yet)

I can not find a source of these in USA. Does anyone know of any ? My problem is that must sites don't have renanthera as selection. What would they be under ? Are they Vanda like ?

i too am very in love with this species and its direct RED hybrids. though since it is a vanda relative and i have yet to successfully grow a vanda, im not about to fork over my life savings for roadkill. theyre either in the sections vanda, species, or other/miscellaneous.....

where ive seen them and their hybrids is kawamoto orchid nursery in hawaii. they ship to the us as far as i know and are certified since they ship to AZ of all places. again they are a bit pricey but im sure theyre worth the wait since you probably wont find anything near blooming size. they are healthy looking from what i see i just havent bought one as i know they are only seedlings and havent the skills yet to keep it alive let alone flower. good luck on your search

also this genus has several species like coccinea (my favourite), imschootiana, and philippinensis just to name a few.

hi. I new here too. renanthera is a member of the vanda family. I have a couple different members of the family, not this one unfortunately,it is really very beautiful. if you are looking for a good orchid house to buy from. I have had great success with Hausermanns and Orchidweb. good luck
