With its delicate pink hue, the orchid fits perfectly into both modern and classical arrangements, and the flower retains its beauty for a full seven days – longer than many other cut flowers.

Simple Care for Your Pink Orchid

The bride orchid thrives best in a bright indoor location, ideally near a window with indirect light.

FAQ about Orchid (Phalaenopsis) – Pink

How often should a moth orchid be watered?
Water about once a week, or when the roots in the pot look silvery-grey. The easiest way is to soak the pot in room-temperature water for 10-15 minutes and then let it drain thoroughly. Never leave the orchid standing in water, as this rots the roots.
Where should a moth orchid be placed?
Choose a bright spot out of direct midday sun, such as an east or west-facing windowsill. A room temperature of 18-25°C suits it well. Avoid draughts and do not place it right next to a radiator.
How do I get my orchid to flower again?
After flowering, cut the flower spike just above the second or third node from the base, or remove it entirely if it has dried out. A few weeks of slightly cooler nights (around 15-18°C) and a little orchid fertiliser help trigger a new spike.
When and how should a moth orchid be repotted?
Repot every two to three years, or when the bark has broken down, ideally after flowering. Use special orchid bark rather than ordinary potting compost, and a clear pot with good drainage. Cut away dead, soft roots with clean scissors.
Is a moth orchid poisonous to pets?
No, Phalaenopsis is considered non-toxic to cats and dogs. Even so, it is best to keep the plant out of reach, as chewing can damage the plant and eating a lot of plant material may upset a pet's stomach.
