Paramount Orchids continuously imports, and propagates, new plant material to ensure that we always have a diverse and unique selection of plants for sale. Our current stock totals approximately 50,000 plants (seedlings to flowering size) and, as a result, we always have something new, or unusual, in flower.

It would be impossible to maintain a current listing of everything that we have in flower, however, we feature on this page certain select plants that we believe will catch the interest of both novice grower and collector alike.  Often these will be in bud or in spike.

This Spring we are featuring plants which we have imported over the past six to fifteen months, some of which were flasks when imported but are now large seedlings, others which were near flowering size when imported and are now either flowering or will be soon.

Please check our web page frequently as we regularly update it to take into account new plant importations or deflasked seedlings.
