This variety, denoted as 'wallisii', likely exhibits unique characteristics or traits that differentiate it from the typical Phragmipedium warszewiczianum. These differences might be manifested in variations of the flower's shape, color, size, or patterning.

Care for this plant involves maintaining consistent soil moisture with good drainage and regular fertilization to promote healthy growth and vibrant flowering. Phragmipedium warszewiczianum var. wallisii is particularly appealing to orchid enthusiasts and collectors for its potential unique floral characteristics, contributing to the diversity and beauty within the slipper orchid collection.

My order was processed as described by this company. My plant was carefully taped and wrapped, then boxed. Upon opening the box and removing the wrapping paper, the plant was beautiful and healthy. I’m very pleased with the plant and the choice to use this company.
They do such a great job packing these plants! I've never been disappointed! The heat pack lasted the whole 3 days while it was in transit.
I was hoping this was the variety I saw at my local botanical garden. However, the top of the leaf is a dark emerald green, not the lime green pictured. The leaf shape is also more elongated with less prominent ribbing of the veins than the heart-shaped leaf pictured here. The specimen received was a bit underwhelming. I guess the search continues.
