Orchids of Wickford

We specially bred these Paphiopedilum hybrid orchids from our own award-winning stock for very dark and large full formed flowers. They are wonderful and agressive growers that bloom every 7 months when mature.

These young plants have 6 inch leafspans and will bloom within 14 months.

Dear Customers,

May I express my appreciation to all the supportive people I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with over the years. Granted, the purpose of setting up a merchants account on the internet is to generate income, but from some of you, I received much more than that.

Anyhow, to the point.

After nearly 30 years of potting orchids, the process has taken its toll on my hands. Reynard’s Syndrome, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and chipped cartilage now prevents me from potting any more plants. I actually need my wife to open up jars for me –That’s a pretty strong signal.

Thus, at this point we will be shutting down and no longer taking orders for plants.

Again thanks, it was a great experience.

Mike @ Wickford Orchids
