5 Easy Care Tips to Look After Phalaenopsis Orchid Plants

By: palettedeflores.com.au

Phalaenopsis Orchids are wonderful house plants for elegant and sophisticated home decorating. They are universally appealing plants, perfect to decorate any space in your home. 

 

These plants along with Australian Natives are well known for their long life, which makes them a good gift option. Fresh cut flowers from Palette De Flores last up to a week, but if you want something that lasts longer then Phalaenopsis Orchid plants are a perfect choice.

5 Easy Care Tips to Look After Orchids

 

1. Find the right environment

Orchids love a bright indirect environment, the best place to keep them is in a north-facing solarium with bright windows all-around cool and no direct light. Light can burn the flowers. 

 

2. Do not over-watering them

 

Most of the Phalaenopsis plants come in a transparent pot. That’s because its roots are coated in something which is called phellogen, which absorbs moisture and enjoys being exposed to light. The transparent pot will allow the light to get through. It is recommended to water the Phalaenopsis orchid once a week maximum.

 

3. They don’t need a lot of heat 

 

Phalaenopsis orchid plants will last longer in a semi-cool environment just below room temperature is an ideal and very steady temperature. Try to avoid placing the orchid near an air conditioner.

 

4. What to do when your Phalaenopsis orchid has finished blooming

 

When your orchid finally finishes flowering, you can rebloom it

On the stem you will see there are little nodule points that are a couple of inches apart down the stem, you can cut it above one of those nodules and you will find within a few months that is getting a new chute.  

In this case, give it a little less light and little less water, and a cooler location for about six months then move it to a warmer location and that should help spur it to produce a new flower spike. 

 

5. Repot every 1-2 years

 

According to the experts, Phalaenopsis plants typically like to be repotted every one to two years. It will depend on how big your plat is and how big your pot is. You can repot them in a plastic container, and you can use a specific orchid solid or orchid mix. There are also specific orchid pots that you can find at the local hardware store. These pots have extra holes that go all the way around the bottom of the pot and that provide extra ventilation.

5 Holiday Gift Ideas

1. Gift Cards 

If you don’t know the person well enough, gift cards will lift holiday spirits. There are plenty of different gift cards available we recommend getting them from a place where there is a variety of shops, such as the local shopping center or a mall.

Gift vouchers save you time and are perfect for a last-minute gift. Just make sure you check the expiration date. Usually, it is for three years. They will have plenty of time to choose something they will love!

2. Christmas Wreath

3. Care Packages

At this time of the year, where many people are not planning vacations, We have been looking for ways to stay connected to our loved ones from afar, We’ve been putting together care packages with our favourite ideas for holiday gifts.

Homemade Pot Pies: 
Now that many of us work from home, we have the  opportunity to cook a little more! We had  found this chicken pot pie recipe which is the perfect option to have fun and you will be able to drop off a meal at a friend’s home. 

Your Favourite Art: 
If you like to draw, paint, or support local artists, you could go to your local market and find a beautiful piece of art that you could send via mail to your loved one.

The Palette De Flores Candles:
