Paramount Orchids continuously imports new plant material to ensure that we always have a diverse and unique selection of plants for sale. Our current stock totals approximately 35,000 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. 

The plants we are currently listing are a selection from plants that are, or soon should be, in spike  or which we believe are particularly noteworthy.

Please check our web pages frequently as we regularly update it to take into account new plant arrivals or de-flasked seedlings.
