Application Notes
Plant Tissue Culture Tested
Plant species: Terrestrial or
chids including Paphiopedilum,
Cypripedium, and Phragmipedium
This medium is a good seed sowing medium for many
terrestrial orchid species. Originally
developed for Cypripedium, this medium is al
so used for germination of Phragmipedium and
Paphiopedilum. Germination may be enhanced by in
cluding 50 ml of Coconut Water (C195) per
liter of medium.
