Care Guide
PlantShed's orchids are potted in sphagnum moss which retains water and means the plant will need to be watered less frequently. For orchids in containers without drainage, touch the moss for dryness every 10-12 days. If top feels dry, add about a quarter cup of water per plant, keeping in mind that too much water will build up at the bottom of the container and should be avoided. If transplanted to another pot with drainage holes, water about once a week allowing excess to drain out in sink.
While blooming, place the orchid anywhere out of direct sunlight. When not in bloom, bright indirect light is best.
Blooms should last several months and will then fall off on their own, but if wilted, just prune or gently break from the stem for tidier appearance. After last bloom as fallen off, cut stem down to the base to encourage leaves to grow and a new stem to emerge.
Easy! Despite a misconceived reputation as being hard to grow, Phalaenopsis Orchids are some of the easiest to maintain and get to bloom again.
The ideal containers for Phalaenopsis Orchids have holes on the sides to provide good drainage and air circulation. Plants in vases are a more formal presentation, but require more care in terms of watering to avoid build-up and root rot. Plants in sphagnum moss require less frequent watering, but a mixture of moss and bark is best for long-term growth.
Yes! Phalaenopsis Orchids are non-toxic if consumed by dogs and cats.
The NASA Clean Air Study has ranked the Phalaenopsis Orchid as one of the most efficient houseplants that remove xylene and toluene from the air we breathe.
Use any balanced orchid fertilizer at half-strength every week or two. Once a month flush out the potting mix with clean water to remove any salts that may build up. Do not fertilize while orchid is in bloom.
Keep above 60F at night and between 70-80F during the day. Avoid fluctuating temperatures as this will cause unopened buds to drop.
