    Temperature Intermediate: 55–80°F (13–27°C). Mottled-leaf types prefer warmer; solid green-leaf types tolerate cooler temps.

    Water Keep medium slightly moist but never waterlogged. No pseudobulbs means less drought tolerance. Never let water sit in the crown.

    Product Details

    Paphiopedilum Pleasantry is a primary hybrid of two mottled-leaf Barbata slippers, Paph. wardii × Paph. barbatum. Wardii contributes a green-striped dorsal and petals peppered with dark freckles, while barbatum adds deep purple-red color and warty petal edges, so expect darker, richly colored blooms over handsome tessellated foliage.

    Wardii grows in the cool, misty hills of Myanmar and Yunnan, and barbatum in the warm, humid forests of Peninsular Malaysia and southern Thailand, so this hybrid is happy at intermediate temperatures, 60–85°F, in moderate light. Keep the mix evenly moist and add calcium occasionally.

    Young plants in 2" pots, most in spike for their first bloom — photos are representative of the plant size and maturity available. An easy, affordable way to start a slipper collection.
