Our only chocolate house plant and what a treat! Just don't put it in your bedroom or you will dream of chocolate all night. This is a very special orchid and it has the added benefit of being one of the easier orchids to grow so you can be bold and go for it! Of all our chocolate scented offerings, Sharry Baby is one of the most chocolate scented plants. You will be happy to have her in your home. Trust me!
We ship the chocolate orchid year-round. Price includes expedited delivery direct from our partner orchid grower via Priority Mail. Orchids are only shipped on Mondays to ensure delivery before the weekend. Occasionally the weather is too cold to ship via mail and expedited delivery is necessary, but it is more expensive. We will contact you if this applies to your order and let you know the shipping cost so that you can decide if you want to proceed with the order.

I must confess to have fallen in love with this little character! Yes, it is expensive but it is the most exquisite and best known (and most chocolate) of the Japanese arisaemas. The inflorescence is distinctive with its dark maroon/black hooded spathe and pestle-shaped, pure white spadix. Grow in fertile, leafy, slightly acid soil in dappled shade. Height 16-20in. Hardy - mulch well.
