its progeny, while also reducing the plant size.
Ascocentrum ampullaceum has round, glowing purple flowers and often flowers profusely. Recently, a very rare pure white clone of the species was discovered. White-flowered forms of coloured orchids always demand high prices due to their scarcity. Numbers can be increased by division of older plants, seed and tissue culture. Plants produced by tissue culture, called mericlones, are genetically identical to the parent plant, whereas seedlings may display variation in colour and form. The bright orange Ascocentrum garayi is a popular plant in its native Thailand. For years this species has been confused with the related Ascocentrum miniatum. The miniature Ascocentrum pumilum is endemic to Taiwan.
