Bletilla striata 'White Pearl' is a 2016 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction that we selected from the variable seed-grown commercial Bletilla striata 'Alba'. Bletilla striata 'White Pearl' is a very fast-multiplying clone with 28" tall stalks of pleated green leaves topped, starting in mid-April (NC), with 30" stalks of small, pure-white orchid flowers. Moist, rich, organic soils and plenty of light grow some amazing specimens. Expect well-grown plants to make a 3' wide patch in five years.
