PHALAENOPSIS ORCHID PLANT—5in POT
Bulk 5in Orchid Plants | Chantilly, VA 

Phalaenopsis orchid plants (Phalaenopsis hybrida) are among the most popular flowering houseplants available, prized for their long-lasting blooms, elegant silhouette, and surprisingly easy care. Known for graceful flower spikes and blooms that can last for months, phalaenopsis orchids bring color and sophistication to homes, offices, events, and gift-giving occasions.
Our orchid plants arrive in standard nursery pots (approx. 5" grower pots) and are most commonly available in both single-spike and double-spike forms. Depending on availability, specialty varieties such as mini phalaenopsis, cascading orchids, and novelty bloom forms may also be available.

CARE + HANDLING

➜ Phalaenopsis orchids should be kept upright during transport and display to protect the flower spikes from bending or snapping
➜ Water only when the potting media is nearly dry, thoroughly soaking the roots before allowing excess water to drain completely
➜ Place the plant in bright, indirect light, avoiding prolonged afternoon sun that can scorch both leaves and blooms
➜ Maintain average indoor temperatures and keep the plant away from heating vents, air conditioners, and cold drafts
➜ Phalaenopsis orchids are perfect for gift giving, office desks, reception areas, hotel lobbies, restaurant décor, and long-lasting home displays where elegant blooms can be enjoyed for weeks at a time
➜ Once flowering has finished, continue caring for the plant rather than discarding it—healthy plants often reward patience by blooming again
