Flowering size orchid

Phragmipedium kovachii is a spectacular orchid species discovered in Peru in 2001 and named after its discoverer, Michael Kovach. It is known for its magnificent large flowers, which can reach a diameter of up to 20 cm. The flowers are colored in a stunning shade of deep pink to purple. The flowers are also notable for their round shape and distinctive texture. The plant grows naturally in the mountain forests of Peru and therefore prefers a temperate climate. It thrives in well-drained but moist substrate (sphagnum moss, washed coconut) and requires plenty of fresh air and indirect light. However, it should be noted that due to its rarity and difficulty in cultivation, this orchid is recommended for experienced orchid enthusiasts. It is classified as an endangered species and is therefore strictly regulated in international trade.
