1.  Please note that we do not accept orders over the telephone. 
2.  We do not teach deflasking in emails or over the phone so please don't ask or we will disconnect from you.  Instead click here for deflasking lessons on YouTube delivered at your own pace. 
3.  We ship to all countries in the world except Mexico, Indonesia, Russia and Belarus.  For Italy there is unfortunately only a 50% chance your flasks will make it through the Italian customs inspectors.  In South Africa the customs inspectors will most definitely contaminate all the flasks during customs inspection by opening all the bottles.
4.  We do not discuss/debate the pros & cons of shipping during cold weather in YOUR location.  If you are afraid of cold weather shipping then order flasks during your warmer season.

Simply review our catalog below, then write down your desired selections in an email to us and request an old-fashioned quote from HBI on the orchid flasks of your choice.  We will then confirm availability and pricing including shipping charges (minimum $18) in our email response to you:

The Ghost Orchid, Dendrophylax lindeni aka Polyrrhiza lindeni (old school name).  We at HBI have been working on growing ghost orchids from seed for over three decades ever since we first bought 3 ghost orchids flasks from Larry Evans.  Larry did curating and flasking work for the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota. Selby Gardens once green housed the top premier specimens of this Florida species.  The ghost orchid parents used by Larry originated in the Fakahatchee Strand and were first bred by him many years before ghost orchids were designated as an endangered species.  Fakahatchee ghost orchids with their longer frog-legs/tendrils and ghostly all-white flower surpass the truncated short-tendril inferior class lindeni green-flower ghost orchid pretenders named Dendrophylax sallei from Cuba and Dominican Republic in any competition and will always be the more valuable type of this vanishing species to own.   Kew Gardens now has a ghost orchid in their collection, June 1, 2023.
10 plants, 2-3 year old with 1" to 1.5" long legs.  $100. 
20 plants, 2-3 year old with 1" to 1.5" long legs.  $170.   
30 plants, 2 year old with 1" to 1.5" plus long legs.  $270.   
40 plants, 2 year old sprouts with 2 dozen having 3/4" to 1" plus long legs.  $370.

400 plants, 2 year old protocorm/sprouts 40%, remaining 1/2" to 1" long legs.  $1,800.
800 plants, 1 year old protocorm 60% with 40% as sprouts and 1/2" long legs.  $2,800.  

Polyrrhiza lindeni.  Ghost Orchids mounted.  We have a few mounted ghost orchids mounted on clay plates.  The plants are held in place with roof vent fiberglas screen. We mount "clumps" of 10 to 30  plants on these individual mounts.  The mounts grow well for us hanging high vertically in the greenhouse under 50% shadecloth with Spanish moss placed loosely above the mounts.   See pictures below.

Dendrophylax fawcetti.  This unusual long-tailed leafless orchid is native to the Cayman Islands found only within a 6-acre heavily-guarded (guards with guns) preserve within the Ironwood Forest in George Town.  This species was named after William Fawcett in 1888.  Click here for history.  This species grows (ie for us) twice as fast as our lindeni ghost orchids.  And, some younger collectors will argue this species is more rare than the Dendrophylax lindeni.  We're offering this selection from our private collection owing to the generosity of our long-time friend Aaron Hicks.   
10 plants in flask with 1.5" long legs.  $90
20 plants in flask with 1.5" to 2" long legs.  $185.  Sold Out.

Cattleya Species               top

C. aclandiae (Viking x Helen Schwartz).  Very compact bifoliate from the state of Bahia in Brazil found in a diminishing small range.  
10 plants 1" to 2" tall.  $45.
.



C. amethystoglossa (Mystery x Orchidglade AM/AOS).  The pollen stud plant Orchidglade is from the famous Jones & Scully Nursery which operated in Miami 1946-1992 until Hurricane Andrew.    Orchidglade (right side) was quite spectacular.  
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $45. 
50 plants 1" tall.  $190.
100 plants 1" tall.  $290.

.

 


C amethystoglossa (Ana Luisa x Vitoria).  This cross came directly from a former Serviço Nacional de Informações secret service agent in Brazil who we can not list here.  The breeding parents were jungle collected and named after the two most important women in his life, one of two eventual mother flasks made in Brazil was given to our lab in Florida many years ago after being carefully hand-carried to the USA.  The typical plants are shown on the LEFT side.  Surprisingly 20% of this cross tended toward the coerulea variety and one of those select coerulea specimen plants is in the picture to the RIGHT side. 
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $50.
50 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $200.
100 plants 1" tall.  $300.

.



C. amethystoglossa coerulea ((Ana Luisa x Vitoria) x Blue Bloop).  Approximately 1/5 of the Ana Luisa x Vitoria cross were coerulea and we used the best "select" specimen from the blue segment in this cross, see picture to the left.   Picture on the right is the pollen parent coerulea Blue Bloop.   
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $60.
50 plants 1" tall.  $200.
100 plants 1" tall.  $350.

C.  blossfeldiana (Mick CBR/AOS x sib).  We began breeding this rarely seen Cattleya in 2004, it is a definitely a favorite here in Florida.  Click here for high resolution picture.
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.   $45.  
.



C. dolosa. Not often seen Cattleya species. This selection is not a primary hybrid.  Incredibly fragrant and a satin sheen to the flower. The original South American Brazilian "rocky" habitat for this species no longer exists. 
10 plants 1" tall. $50. 
..
.



C. dowiana var aurea Excellente x self.   Excellente is from Costa Rica.  The mother flask of this selfing however came to us from the top private collection in Venezuela hand-carried by me back to Florida during Hugo Chavez's first term as El Presidente before the export of orchids were severely restricted by his customs inspector goons/narco-thugs especially at the airport shaking down gringos from the USA. 
10 plants 1" to 2" tall.  $60.
.

C. dowiana var aurea (4N x 2N).  We secured an intermediate flask of this species cross directly from Roy Tokunaga of H&R Nurseries at the Tamiami International Orchid Festival a several years ago in Miami.  The offspring from this cross are very robust growers with "thick leathery" leaves like a polyploid would indeed produce.  However contrary to what many amateur sellers in California are saying the result of a 4N x 2N cross is not always a sterile 3N mule... the offspring are more likely to be 25% 4N, 25% 2N and 50% normal with a few dozen 3N sprinkled into the entire swarm (as all swarms produce).        
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $70.
.



C. dowiana var aurea, Giants of the Atlantic Rain Forest from Costa Rica.  The protocorm from the original mother flask of these dowiana was purchased from Ian Walters in Australia over 20 years ago and with much TLC has been nicely kept on life support in our HBI laboratory since that time.  From time to time we extract 1 or 2 plants from our intermediate flasks to grow out for our private collection closed breeding program in house since nearly all the potential dowiana stud plants we have seen for sale at the big shows lately by all the South American growers are either runts or diseased.  The old stock of "good-breeding" dowiana stud plants seems to have disappeared.  Last year we subjected a few of our intermediate flasks to a proliferation-laced agar and have produced a few extra retail size flasks for the dowiana aficionados.  These flasks are NOT intended for amateurs or newbies.
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $250.  Out of Stock.     .


   

C. dowiana var aurea (Del Valle x sub var splendens Cahiz-Yrygoyen).  Del Valle is specimen-quality traditional variety aurea breeder straight from Colombia to HBI.  The Cahiz-Yrygoyen mericlone is also variety aurea but with a unique purple lip from the OFE family collection in nearby Miami Florida.  The Select #1 offspring picture to the right is from this cross. 
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $100.    
.


C. eldorado (Mount Ito x concolor (type 'XXX' x type var rubra)).  We have had dozens of requests over the past 10 years for C eldorado however this vanishing species is very difficult to find anymore in 100% pure species form meeting our "species only" standard.   But happily Miami breeder Ernest Ivan graciously brought to us this cross of his two best specimen plants about 6 years ago for flasking.  The picture on the left is the pod parent Mount Ito.  Picture on the right is from actual offspring in 2025.
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $50.  
.


C. elongata.  This species (from the old original JEM nursery in Florida) throws out a super long inflorescence, you can grow the plants in your backyard and bloom the flowers over in your neighbor's backyard.    
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $40. 
.


C gaskelliana var coerulea (TooBlueForYou x La Plantio).  Without a doubt these two specimen species plants are the best gaskelliana coerulea plants we have ever seen.  Blue lips are solid coloration on both parents, there is no color streaking/break-up on these specimen plants.
10 plants 1" to 2" tall.  $50. 
.  


C. guttata var alba (Limerick x Misty).  Strong alba form of this wonderfully fragrant species, might be the best cattleya of all for pure exquisite fragrance.  From the Helen Schwartz original Miami Florida collection.
10 plants 2" tall. $35.  
.



C. guttata var coerulea (Bahia x self).  This blue lip variety is not often seen other than at a very few Florida shows.
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $50. 
.
.




C. hardyana semialba.  On page 71 of Carl Withner's book The Cattleyas and their Relatives Volume 1 is the most beautiful white petals/sepals semialba hardyana (which is a natural occurring hybrid between C. aurea and C. warscewiczii) that I have ever seen in all of orchid breeding.  We have crossed our C. warscewiczii semialba Shahbanu with pollen from our C. dowiana var aurea Cahiz-Yrygoyen (from the OFE clan) in hopes of matching the semialba in Withner's book.
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $45.
.


C intermedia Aquinii var coerulea 'Blue Rhapsody' x self. Selfing of an exceptionally heavy substance rare blue Aquinii form first flasked by Ruben Sauledo when he own RIO Nursery (and orchid laboratory) in Miami.

10 plants 1.5" to 2.5" tall.  $50.
.




C. labiata var coerulea (Yummiata x (Panelas x Sangue Azul)).  The Yummiata is indeed yummy with 6" wide flowers and opaque dark blue lip.  Once again both of these breeder plants produce exceptionally well-formed good-substance flowers.  The pollen parent has flowers with an unusually dark lip as can easily be seen in the photograph (right side). 
10 plants 1" tall to 1.5".  $60.

 

C. labiata coerulea ((D. Guile x Nice Lip) x (Panelas x Sangue Azul)).  Both of these plants produce exceptionally well-formed good-substance flowers.  The pollen parent has flowers with an unusually dark lip as can easily be seen in the photograph (right side). 
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $45.
.


C. lueddemanniana coerulea ((((SiquiSiqui x Amparo) x (Mariauxi x Francisco)) x Crystelle) x coerulea (La Orquidea x Azul)).  Our best lueddemanniana coerulea cross, it would be extremely hard for any other breeder to surpass this cross for color, size, shape and substance. 
10 plants 2" to 2.5" tall.  $50.
.



C. lueddemanniana var coerulea ((Kathleen x Francisco) x ((Mariauxi x Francisco) x Crystelle)).  As some of you may know the blue Francisco will not self so we here in the lab are always keen to cross two stud plants containing a Francisco parent to increase rare chloroplasts of blue coloration.  This cross was 3 years in the making and is a winner for size, substance, form, large lip and 6 on 10 scale for the target coloring we were aiming to achieve.  The pod parent flowers are 7.5" wide.  The picture shown to the right is from the first crop to bloom and all the 2021 flowers are measuring a grandiflora type 7.5" across.  Typical flower larger picture.
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $45



C. lueddemanniana var rubra (Sarita x Yamile).   These vibrant pearlescent plum/magenta colored flowers are a huge 6"-7" across with good substance blooming Dec thru Feb.

.


C. lueddemanniana ((var rubra (Sarita x Yamile) x (var coerulea (La Orquidea x Azul))).  Our best rubra 'WhoopsTooMuchRed' times our best coerulea lip.  Dare we hope for electric magenta sepals and petals with a blue lip?  In theory we have at least a 25% chance.   
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $45. 
.



 
C. lueddemanniana var rubra (WhoopsTooMuchRed x Tom Elmore AM/AOS).  The pod parent is our in-house darkest SELECT breeder var rubra (Sarita x Yamile) originally from the Armando Mantellini collection in Venezuela.  We chose the Tom Elmore as the pollen parent for its perfect form.   Offspring flowers are 7" across petals.  See picture of offspring.
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $45.
.


C. lueddemanniana (var rubra (Laluz x Infierno) x var grandiflora ((Mariauxi x Maruja) x (Morella x Cecilia))).  We are looking for larger than normal red flowers with heavy substance and perfect form. For a high-resolution photo of our 2024 grandiflora breeder click here. 
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $40. 
.
.


C. lueddemanniana alba (Candelaria x Clint McDade).   On my last trip to Venezuela during Hugo Chavez's second term of economic ruin and nationalization of private property I brought back one flask of this white flower cross which is the best alba (with the absolutely least amount of yellow in the throat) that I have ever seen.   For those growers who like bringing gift orchids to weddings where the bride is still a virgin (of course, wink-wink) or good old-fashion Catholic exorcisms or standard upbeat funerals then this alba selection is the perfect choice.  Picture is actual offspring from this cross. 
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $55.   2 flasks remaining. 
.



C. maxima semialba.  Species, typical.
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $35

C. mossiae var semialba (Mick x (Consuelo x Mercedes Sin)).  We have once again resurrected one of our old crosses from 2011.   
10 plants 1" tall.  $40.
.



.
C. percivaliana var coerulea (Undine x self) aka Ondine.  This F1 selfing was made by Armando Mantellini when he still lived and operated his orchid nursery in Venezuela.  HBI secured one of the mother flasks from him over 15 years ago and we have "kept it going" all this time using special proliferation additives.  The most famous select coerulea-colored plant from the entire swarm was the Cerro Verde (still owned by Armando) and pictured here.
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $50.

C percivaliana coerulea (Cerro Verde x self).  This cross represents the F2 generation of Undine using the best select offspring from the entire F1 brood which is Cerro Verde.  We have high hopes for this offering and are looking forward to our best percivaliana blues yet.  See Cerro Verde picture above.
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.   $70.    
.



C. percivaliana (Summit FCC  x Teresa Antonio AM/AOS).  This is a cross we made 8 years ago, the first run flasks sold out quite fast.  The flower picture is one of our first bloomers from the cross of these two AOS champions.  The vivid electric orange coloration in the column is stunning and was quite a hoped-for dream come true in this breeding laboratory dedicated to the continuation of such fine Cattleya species.
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $70.    



C. percivaliana (Alberts x Summit FCC).  Alberts & Merkle Brothers Nursery was once a large prestigious orchid grower nearby right here in Florida.  Bruno Alberts was one of the nursery owners, this pod parent is one of his most famous plants (picture on the left side).
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $55.      
.



C. percivaliana alba var grandiflora (Sonia x (Sonia x self)). Large bright white alba, neon orange throat. The Sonia named after well-known Venezuelan grower Sonia Urbano is THE best percivaliana alba ever domestically grown.
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall. $50.
.



C. porphyroglossa.  Ahhhh the smell of chocolate, we love that overwhelming fragrance in the greenhouse. Shiny dark brown sepals and petals, multifloral, amd unmistakable chocolate fragrance.
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $45.
.


   

C. rex var moyobamba.  Found in northern Peru bearing the white petals and sepals.   The moyobamba is the more easily found forma of this species.  Note: these Cattleya are very slow growing species.
10 plants 1" tall.  $50.  Out of Stock. 

And, from southern Peru we now have flasks of the rarely seen Cattleya rex var ayacucho known better for its distinctive yellow sepals and petals.
10 plants 1" tall.  $60.  On hold until plants are larger.  
 


C. schilleriana var coerulea.  Our coerulea type is shown on the left side in this picture.  A standard schilleriana is shown on the right side in the included picture. 
10 plants 1" tall. $40.   
.



C. schroederae (var citrina x concolor Rosalia).   Our best citrina stud pod parent plant has been paired with pollen from a rarely seen gorgeous concolor Rosalia (Right side) owned by a famous Venzuelan breeder in Miami.  The offspring from this cross are blooming as warm pink concolors with yellow throats and very fragrant. 
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $70.  
.


C. schroederae (type x alba (Hercules AM/AOS 1932 x self)).  You always know when you are in the old royal Hapsburg dynasty presence of C schroederae in a greenhouse, imagine the alluring almond smell of arsenic tinged with sweet apricots, it is hypnotic, I never can resist that fragrance.  Art Chadwick may very well be credited with keeping the Hercules blood line alive and preserved in America, see paragraph 13, his best Hercules x self select clone of which a division was bought many years ago by Dr Anthony Alfieri, the highly respected orchid species grower in Delaware, is the pollen parent in this cross.  We chose Anthony's clone (picture on right) because his stud plant always throws up 6 flowers per spike which is quite unusual since we have never seen more than 3 flowers on a schroederae inflorescence.  
10 plants 2" to 3" tall.  $65. 
.



C. schroederae (type x Vanguard).  The Vanguard's flowers are the largest of this species we have seen anywhere in the last 20 years.  It is our hope that this large flower size trait carries through into the offspring more than the normal 25% odds. 
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $60.
.



C. trianaei var coerulea (OKF 2485 x Escapee 8893313).  The very large flowered Escapee 8893313 "escaped" (right side photo) from Nicolás Maduro's Venezuela in 2018 to marry up with our most promising coerulea stud plant OKF 2485 (left side photo).  
10 plants  1.5".  $50.
.



C. trianaei (var coerulea OKF 2485 x Mary Fennell).  One of our top 3 coerulea stud plants times a Mary Fennell division we bought directly from Tom Fennell Jr after he moved up to Deerfield Beach following the catastrophic Hurricane Andrew in Miami to try and salvage his family's famous Orchid Jungle nursery. 
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $50.  We will beging shipping again in July 2025.
.


C. trianaei (var coerulea OKF 2485 x Boca Super Dark Lip).  Our best coerulea stud plant times an unusual fluke dark-lipped trianaei we just happened upon quite by accident in a Delray Beach fruit market near Green Barn Orchid Supply off Military Trail. 
We are looking to offer this selection in September 2025.
.



C. trianaei (Lady Gaga x Boca Super Dark Lip).  Our best standard trianaei stud plant times an unusually dark throat trianaei.   We are looking for high flower count per spike (inherited from Lady Gaga), concolor velvety lip (inherited from Lady Gaga), exceptional fluffy/frilly petal form (inherited from Lady Gaga), and super dark throat (almost dark blue) from the Boca Super Dark Lip parent.  
10 plants 3/4" to 1" tall.  $45. 
100 plants 1/2" tall.  $200.
1000 plants 1/4 " to 1/2" tall. $400.  
.



C. velutina (JAM x JEM).  When is the last time you saw a Cattleya velutina?  Or perhaps more specifically, have you ever seen one? 
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $45.   
.
.
.


C. violacea semialba (Icabaru x Hector Luis). Icabaru (left side) is an unusual semialba with a uniform bright red column. Crossed with the #2 outstanding semialba Hector Luis from Colombia (right side). This cross has occasionally produced bright contrasting white sepals and solid fire engine red petals.
10 plants 1.5" tall.  $45.    
 
 


C. warscewiczii var coerulea ((Angarita x self) x Saint 4).   We have high hopes that the strong blue color in these two specimen plants will be carried into the progeny along with the great form seen in the Francisco Villegas Saint 4 pollen parent.  
10 plants 1" to 2" tall.  $60.  
.



C. warscewiczii (semialba Shahbanu x alba Leo Holquin FCC/AOS).  We are hoping for Leo Holquin's great form and Shahbanu's excellent coloration/substance in this cross.
10 plants 1" to 2" tall.  $55. 
.

 

C. warscewiczii (semialba Shahbanu x coerulea (Angarita x self)).  We have taken our two best specimen plants and created this cross which should have perfect form/substance and very interesting coloration.
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $50
.



C. warscewiczii (semialba Shahbanu x coerulea Son of LaFloresta).  We have taken our best semialba and crossed it with a very promising new coerulea we obtained in Brazil.  Hopefully some of the blue color will gain more prominence in this upcoming selection. 
10 plants 1" tall.  $50.
.



C. warneri var coerulea (Henrique x Miranda).  In 2014 I bought a division of the Henrique coerulea directly from Henrique Graf (see picture on the left).  It is our opinion this plant is the best C warneri coerulea in existence.  Our lab has bred the Henrique with our division of the famous Miranda coerulea specimen plant which nearly everyone I know (esp in Florida) will swear is a FCC awarded plant, the only problem is there is no "legitimate" record of such an AOS award. 
10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $50. 
.

 

Future crosses in the laboratory at present               top

C. trianaei (The President x coerulea Escapee 8893313.  Two time awarded FCC The President named in honor of AC Burrage first president of AOS is the best trianaei on earth in my book.  It has great shape, substance, color and flower longevity.   We are hoping to introduce blue color into the offspring with our Escapee pollen parent.  Look for this offering in 2026.  

.

Neofinetia falcata (((Amani Pink x Syoujou Red) x Shu Ten Nou) x Amani Island).  We have taken the top select from our best red colored Neofinetia falcata crosses and bred it to a REAL Amani Island plant (pollen parent).  As you know, real Amani Island NF flowers are the largest in the NF genus.
10 plants 1" to 1.5" tall.  $70.  We have 2 flasks available.

10 plants 1.5" to 2" tall.  $75

We do have well-established previously-bloomed potted plants, 3-7 growths per pot click here of the NF ((Amani Pink x Syoujou Red) x Shu Ten Nou) cross available upon request.  $30 per growth, 3 growths minimum. 



(Neofinetia falcata ((Amani Pink x Syoujou Red) x Shu Ten Nou magenta) x Aerides houlletiana).  We have been working on this intergeneric cross for about 4 years and have finally produced viable seedlings.  The colors and increased substance in these flowers should be fantastic.  Remember NF traits are dominate in anything it touches so the foliage should be on the smaller space-restricted city apartment window ledge pot size. 
10 plants 2" to 2.5" tall.  $45. 

Neofinetia falcata (((Amani Pink x Syoujou Red) x Shu Ten Nou) x Vanda coerulescens).  We have taken our top select red NF breeder and paired it to an exceptionally fine/fragrant Vanda coeruelscens.  This cross should be a decent blue Neofinetia falcata pretender.  
10 plants 2" to 2.5" tall.  $50.
