Plant description

Hugely popular, moth orchids are sought after for their no-fuss ability to produce fabulous flowers and despite their exotic appearance, they’re really easy to care for. Perfect for beginners (or anyone else who enjoys having fresh flowers in their home), each spray can last for several months.

Please note that the pots in the photograph are not supplied with the plants (which are sent out in simple nursery alternatives), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.

What's included:

In this colourful and exotic collection you will receive one of each of the following orchid varieties:

  • Phalaenopsis 'Asian Coral': With gorgeous coral pink blooms that can reach 8cm in diameter, ‘Asian Coral’ brings a warm glow to your home and interior spaces. These reliable and stunning moth orchids make excellent houseplants, flowering up to three times a year, often for long stretches at a time. Grows to 65cm.

  • Phalaenopsis 'Anthura Stellenbosch' (PBR): In bloom throughout the year, with as many as three flowering periods, ‘Stellenbosch’ is a vibrantly coloured cerise-purple moth orchid that would light up any room and makes a perfect gift for anyone who loves strong colours in their lives! Grows to 70cm.

  • Phalaenopsis grandiflorum 'Ravello': The colouring of these flowers makes them showstoppers. Each one is generous in size, and has a soft yellow-green base, which is attractively overlaid with reddish-pink veining. They appear in generous numbers too, as the plant comes with two flowering stems that between them will produce at least 18 buds of flowers. The flowers last for ages too, so it will make a much more enduring alternative to a bouquet of flowers. Grows to 70cm.

    How to care for Phalaenopsis collection:

    Keep the compost moist during the warmer months, but in winter you should reduce the amount it gets, and only water occasionally. Ideally when watering, you should let them stand in a tray of water (or kitchen sink) so they can soak up as much as they like for an hour or two. Afterwards, let the excess water drain away completely. It is always best to give them a good soak when they get quite dry, rather than watering little and often. Their preference is for soft, tepid water.

    They love humidity, so a bright kitchen or bathroom would be ideal, and mist the leaves with water occasionally, especially if they are in a heated room.

    Don't worry if the roots grow outside the pot. In their native environment, they grow in the crooks of branches, and use these aerial roots to absorb water from the air. They do not mind being overcrowded in their pots, so you only need to repot them when the growth starts to suffer. They usually only send up flower spikes once a year, however you may encourage a second flush of flowers to form more quickly if you trim back the stem to just above the first node immediately after they have finished flowering. They prefer even temperatures, so try not to have big drops at night time.
