Nun's Orchid



The Nun's Orchid is a tropical plant suitable for an 8 to 12 inch in diameter, deep pot. If kept indoors by a window in winter, it will grow to approx. 40 inches tall at blooming. The foliage alone isn't much to look at, but while the world outside is frozen, it will bloom its heart out for nearly a month, reminding its keeper of its true character and quality as a houseplant. It looks best elevated on a table near light where it does successfully_ I'm pretty sure_  pray for an end to winter.
