Orchids

Phalaenopsis orchids are wonderful and manageable plants. Exquisitely exotic, orchids are versatile gifts with the added bonus of longevity. Symbolising beauty and refinement, they make the perfect birthday or thank-you present, and add an air of sophisticated interest to the home and office

Orchids Commonly referred to as the "moth orchid", Phalaenopsis are one of the longest blooming orchid genera producing flowers that last from 2 to 6 months before dropping. Phalaenopsis have also been known to bloom 2 to 3 times per year once they have reached a mature size. After it has flowered the first time, cut the stem just below the node where the first flower bloomed. From the top node a new flower stem should emerge within 2 months. If there is no response or the flower spike turns brown, cut it off near the base of the plant where it emerged
