The evergreen foliage (except below 10 degrees F) composes a vigorous 6\" tall x 15\" wide clump of deeply pleated leaves. In spring, the bloom stalks rise from the ground to reach 20\". Along the scape are dozens of small pansy-like flowers of bright yellow...quite stunning. Calanthe sieboldii prefers well-drained, slightly moist, woodland conditions and are proven to be quite easy to grow. After severe winters, they may be very late to emerge.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Calanthe are terrestrial orchids, many of which are winter hardy in zone 7. They are showy in bloom and the foliage while not show-stopping is quite handsome most of the year. Rosettes of broad green foliage are a bit like a small Hosta though the leaves of Calanthe are pleasantly pleated. They want the same cultural conditions that would suit a Hosta. Calanthes can be propagated by division. Like other orchids only the current years pseudobulb produces foliage. The dormant back-bulbs remain forever dormant unless they are separated. So when dividing Calanthes, separate each back-bulb and replant. They will put up new growth from the now liberated dormant buds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Plant Delights Nursery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":21001420613,"sku":"1861","price":72.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1527\/8799\/files\/Calanthe-sieboldii.i-1861.s-63828.r-1_65c05f4e-e2e7-44df-a22a-7ff5b78583c5.jpg?v=1758126982","url":"https:\/\/www.plantdelights.sbs\/products\/calanthe-sieboldii","provider":"Plant Delights Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
