Cold Weather Protection

Complimentary heat packs and insulations are included to protect your plants from cold damage if shipped in a box, if weather requires. Some stresses are expected, but with good light and proper watering, they will bounce back very soon.

Pro tips

To water, soak the pot in a sink filled with water for about 5 to 10 minutes, then allow it to drain completely before placing it back. Fertilize your Phalaenopsis orchid every other week during the growing season with a balanced, orchid-specific fertilizer diluted to half strength. During the dormant period (usually after flowering), reduce feeding to once a month. After the flowers fall, you can encourage reblooming by cutting the flower spike above the second or third node from the base.

How to take care of Phalaenopsis Orchid

Sun: Indirect

Phalaenopsis Orchid should not be in a position to see the sun directly. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium - Bright

Phalaenopsis Orchid will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When mostly dry

Phalaenopsis Orchid likes the soil to be relatively dry before the next watering. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment, as they are typically potted in a bark mix that allows for quick drainage and good air circulation. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but for them, it's always safer to underwater or water when you see signs of lack of water (i.e. droopy, floppy, or soft leaves). Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: High

Phalaenopsis Orchid likes a high humidity environment, give them a mist daily or as often as possible. Alternatively, you can put them around a humidifier or they are perfect for a terrarium. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.

Pet Friendly

You can feel comfortable having Phalaenopsis Orchid around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants.

About Phalaenopsis Orchid

Botanical Name: Phalaenopsis spp.

Common Name: Moth Orchid

Origin: Southeast Asia, the Philippines, Australia

Plant Story

Introducing the Phalaenopsis Orchid, commonly known as the Moth Orchid, a graceful and elegant houseplant that not only adds a touch of sophistication to any indoor setting but also symbolizes beauty, refinement, and the pursuit of perfection.

The Phalaenopsis Orchid is renowned for its broad, glossy leaves and arching stems that bear flowers resembling moths in flight. The blooms come in a variety of colours, from pure whites and pinks to vibrant purples and yellows, each adding its own unique charm and character to the plant's appearance. This orchid's enduring flowers can last for months at a time, providing a long-lasting display of beauty and grace.

To care for your Phalaenopsis Orchid, provide it with moderate indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves and flowers, but ensure it receives enough light to encourage blooming. East or west-facing windows are typically ideal locations for this orchid.

Watering should be done carefully to avoid overwatering, a common mistake with orchids. Allow the planting media to dry slightly between waterings, and ensure the pot has good drainage. Phalaenopsis Orchids enjoy high humidity, which can be maintained through regular misting, using a humidity tray, or placing the plant in a naturally humid environment such as a bathroom.

The Phalaenopsis Orchid is not only a stunning addition to any home but also a symbol of love, luxury, and strength. It has been cherished for centuries in various cultures for its decorative flowers and is often given as a gift of affection and admiration.

As your Phalaenopsis Orchid matures, it becomes not just a plant but a testament to the beauty and complexity of nature. It serves as a reminder of the rewards of careful, dedicated nurturing and the joy of watching something delicate and beautiful thrive under your care.

Welcome the Phalaenopsis Orchid into your home, and let it inspire a deeper appreciation for the elegant and refined aspects of both the natural world and human craftsmanship. It’s not just a plant; it's a celebration of the delicate balance between nature's artistry and the careful cultivation that brings such beauty into bloom.
