All varieties are true to type, please buy with confidence. The leaf shape of Tianxiang Su is completely different from other plain-heart orchids. Its leaves are slender and form a V shape, with a hard midrib and upright leaves, and the leaf tips are wrapped with a golden edge, also called golden lip. The pseudobulbs are round and large, the flower color is pure white, and the flower shape is well-formed, with a particularly strong fragrance. Because its leaf shape, flower shape, petals, lip petals and flower stem are all completely different from other plain-heart orchids and form a style of its own, it has considerable ornamental value, and is therefore called the queen of plain-heart orchids. It spread to Japan long ago, and after long-term cultivation by Japanese enthusiasts, white tips appeared, sometimes with white lines. Thus in the 35th year of Meiji in Japan (1902), the grower, a Japanese person in Osaka, named it "Tianxiang", which attracted the attention of Japanese orchid circles at the time, and it was widely cultivated and appreciated, loved by Chinese and foreign orchid lovers. It readily sends up shoots and easily blooms. The plant is generally about 30-40cm tall, with leaves about 1cm wide, and each seedling has 2-4 leaves!
