Cloud-forest canopy on the Yunnan plateau

Grown where the clouds rest

云栖之地,兰生其间

Monsoon air climbs into mountain here — a cool, luminous plateau where mist feeds the canopy the year round. Steady mild warmth, intense high-altitude light and a wide day-to-night swing give Phalaenopsis firmer spikes and deeper colour, on a fraction of the energy a lowland glasshouse burns.云南地处季风与高原交汇之处,海拔造就四季如春的气候,云雾常年滋养林冠。稳定的温和气温、高海拔强日照与显著昼夜温差,令蝴蝶兰花梗更挺、花色更艳,而温控能耗仅为低地产区的一小部分。

A wide day–night swing
Warm days build sugars, cold mountain nights lock them in — the natural trigger for firmer spikes and deeper, longer-holding colour.
Stronger high-altitude sun
Thin plateau air lets more ultraviolet through, deepening petal pigment and toughening every plant — richer blooms that travel and last.

01 / Our story · 关于我们

A Taiwanese-founded orchid house in the Yunnan highlands, breeding and raising Phalaenopsis from tissue-culture flask to blooming plant — all in one place.

Since 2000, Kunming Tong Yi Biotechnology has specialised in Phalaenopsis breeding, superior-variety propagation, seedlings and industrial-scale flowering plants — from our bases at the Xiaojie Flower Park in Songming County, Yunnan.

Since 2020, customs data has ranked us China's largest exporter of flowering Phalaenopsis, holding more than half the national export share — with a portfolio of invention patents and New Plant Variety rights behind every plant.

02 / How we grow · 如何种植

Eighteen months, four seasons of care.

One plant's whole journey, laid out below — follow the stem from flask to bloom. 从组培瓶到开花,顺着茎读下去。

Months 0–5 · 第 0–5 月
one

Flask & seedling · 组培与种苗

Only healthy, virus-free specimens enter propagation — every mother plant is screened with PCR and ELISA before a single flask is poured.

Lab-certified virus-free stock
— sown in glass, in sterile air: a whole greenhouse inside a bottle.
Vegetative growth benches under climate control

Vegetative growth · 营养生长

Seedlings spend at least four to six climate-controlled months per growth interval, with light, humidity and irrigation tuned by sensor data around the clock.

4–6 months per interval, automated
— warm days and misted dawns; the leaves thicken season by season.

Spike & cold room · 抽梗与低温

A five-to-six-month cold treatment triggers strong, uniform spikes — the long Yunnan autumn does naturally what other growers force.

— the mountain autumn is our cold room, with the doors left open.

Bloom & grade · 开花与分级

Plants bloom on the bench and are hand-graded — flower count, spike length, stem, leaf and root health — before a single one is boxed.

Graded by five criteria
— five checks by hand before any plant earns its box.
