WELCOME to Motes Orchids. Over the past fifty years, Motes Orchids has earned its reputation as the best breeder and grower of vandas. 

This website allows you to explore our plants in pages including Hybrids, Species, Small Batch, Rarities, and Imports. In addition, you can explore our beautiful Photos, informative Articles, and upcoming Events, as well as read the This Month in Your Orchid Collection on the site.

You can easily navigate using the tabs at the top of the page or by clicking the highlighted words in the sentence above. If you have difficulty using the site or other issues, please email bmotes@gmail.com for help.

We offer our own unique seedlings as well as the best of foreign growers. We identify the plants we import because we believe it is important to give credit where it is due instead of passing off others' work as our own. We are proudest of our hybrids. A seedling is a unique plant that no one else can own unless it is cloned. 

Motes Orchids also offers select legacy blooming size plants and other rarities. From time to time, we will be able to offer ultra-rare and precious divisions of highly awarded and coveted plants. 

We are also offer vandaceous orchids grown by some of the best foreign growers personally selected by Dr. Motes based on his over fifty years of growing orchids.

Shipping: A single flat rate shipping and handling fee of $18 applies to all orders, regardless of how many plants you order. Shipments with a Florida destination should use the code FLORIDA to save $5 on shipping. We cannot ship to Hawaii, Puerto Rico, or internationally without additional documentation and shipping costs. Contact us. Shipping to cold climates may be delayed.

Shipping costs continue to increase. Shipping to the West Coast has become prohibitively expensive. In addition to postage, shipping and handling involves a materials and labor cost. In order to mitigate these costs, our shipping and handling fee has increased to $18. Florida residents will be able to use the code FLORIDA to save $5 on shipping. Our shipping fees remain low relative to other growers.

Our hybrids are available nowhere else.

They are available in strictly limited quantities; we do not wholesale.

Be sure to check back frequently as new plants are made available on a regular basis.
