Important Information

Peloric orchids can naturally display variation in flower shape and markings. Individual flowers may not be completely identical, and peloric characteristics can vary between blooms.

Flowering is seasonal and blooms will naturally fade over time. With correct care, the plant can rebloom. Avoid placing in direct sunlight, near heat sources or in cold draughts.

Care Instructions

Place in bright, indirect light away from direct sun. Water sparingly when the roots turn silver and the growing media is almost dry, allowing excess water to drain fully. Do not allow water to collect in the crown. Maintain a warm indoor environment with moderate humidity. Feed with orchid fertiliser during active growth to support healthy roots and future flowering.

Recommended Add-ons

Self-watering plant pot (small) helps maintain steady moisture levels and supports consistent root hydration.

Neem oil can be diluted and lightly applied to foliage to help prevent common orchid pests and keep leaves healthy.

Orchid plant food that we stock promotes strong root growth, vibrant leaves and encourages repeat flowering.
