Featured Flowers - July 2016

Your colorful selection this month arrives from the far reaches of Singapore. The enchanting Mokara Orchid is a trigeneric hybrid between the Ascocentrum, Vanda and Arachnis Orchids. Created in Singapore in 1969, Mokara is now as popular as its parents. The first Mokara hybrid was called Mokara Wai Liang, named after C.Y. Mok of Singapore. This hearty hybrid has a unique flower shape and the potential to last up to two or three weeks in the vase with proper care.

The supporting roles are played by Italian Ruskus and Tri-colored Hawaiian Hala leaves. You can count on them to provide enduring encouragement for the main attractions by giving structure and depth and diversity to your bouquet.
