Phcal. Kryptonite 'Parkside'

Description: Kryptonite flowers reliably during our winter months. Its flowers are beautiful. Unfortunately, however, it is a deciduous orchid, whose leaves can be rather tatty and unsightly when the flowers are in bloom, detracting from the spectacle.

Culture: Kryptonite is growing on a sunny northeast-facing verandah. It is potted in a cymbidium-mix and kept very moist, the bottom of the pot standing in a few millimetres of water.
