🌸 We are honored to share that Waldor Orchids was recently featured by Summer Rayne Oakes of the popular Plant One On Me channel!

As a fourth-generation family-owned orchid nursery here in New Jersey, it is always our joy to open the greenhouse doors to fellow plant lovers. Summer visited with David Off for a behind-the-scenes tour, and we are grateful for the kind words: Waldor Orchids came “highly recommended by the former orchid grower at Longwood Gardens” and “did not disappoint.”

David Off, also known as CattNerd, sits down with Phillip Hamilton of Bredren Orchids to talk about the colorful and creative world of novelty Phalaenopsis.

Phillip is the owner of Bredren Orchids and has built a reputation for developing unique hybrids with striking colors, patterns, and traits. His work pushes the boundaries of what growers expect from Phalaenopsis, turning them into true collector’s plants.

A lifelong orchid enthusiast, Phillip brings both scientific knowledge and artistic creativity to his breeding program. He shares his passion with orchid societies, shows, and hobbyists across the country, inspiring many to explore novelty Phalaenopsis for themselves.

What a pleasure it was to spend time with Phillip and his wife Liz. They are a great dynamic couple, and it was wonderful to hear his story. Phillip’s energy, knowledge, and dedication to orchids shine through in every conversation. If you are looking for fresh insight into modern breeding and hybrid trends, Phillip is the one to listen to.

This Week’s Offerings – 9/11/25 | Waldor Orchids

Each week, the greenhouse doors open to something unexpected. It might be a rare seedling, a bare root beauty, a timeless classic, or even a hidden treasure rediscovered on the bench. Some will be potted, some bare root, but every single one will be worth your attention.

Bareroot offerings are especially thrilling. They appear for one week only, then disappear whether sold or not. Other plants may linger a bit longer, but every release is first come, first served.

These are not just plants. They are collector-level finds: awarded divisions, unique varieties, and surprises you will not see every day.
