General Description:

The Phalaenopsis Orchid or Moth Orchid brings a refined, contemporary touch to any interior space. Graceful arching stems carry larger, more expressive blooms, creating a striking focal point ideal for consoles, countertops, and statement surfaces. Renowned for their longevity, the abundant flowers continue to open over many weeks, offering months of effortless beauty in the home.

Uses:

Stylise your favourite indoor spaces by showcasing this orchid on dining tables, consoles, kitchen islands, and larger bathroom surfaces. Its fuller size and elegant stems make it a natural statement piece — simply pair it with a ceramic that complements your décor and enjoy the instant lift it brings to the room. To keep it thriving, avoid direct sunlight and, during winter, keep it away from cold spots such as draughty window sills.

Plant Care:

Orchids require weekly watering during the warm summer months. We advise taking the Orchid to the kitchen sink, watering well through the medium and then standing until completely drained. Orchids must not be left standing in water; a water logged mix will kill the roots very quickly. Monthly feeding with a proprietary liquid fertilizer at a low strength will help. Moth Orchids will bloom for many months and before all the flowers have died cut the flower stem above the bottom node and you will be rewarded with a side branch and more flowers. Once flowering is finished remove the flower spike, a new spike should appear late winter. With a little care you should be able to get many years of enjoyment from your Moth Orchid.
