Why You'll Love It

Maile Jeanne Tanaka is a favourite among collectors for its combination of fragrant blooms, beautifully mottled foliage and compact growth habit. Even when not flowering, the striking patterned leaves make this orchid an eye-catching display plant.

Supplied as a bloom-size orchid, it has reached flowering maturity and, with the right care, can produce elegant branching flower spikes carrying numerous delicate pink blooms year after year.

Care Tips

Provide bright, filtered light, warm temperatures and good humidity. Water thoroughly once the roots become silver, allowing excess water to drain completely. Feed every two to three weeks with a quality orchid fertiliser during active growth. Healthy green flower spikes can often rebloom, so avoid cutting them after flowering.
