Phalaenopsis orchids are always popular as they bloom for such a long time with very little care. This particularly stylish presentation will make a really special gift for mums but also anyone with a sense of style.
Stunning and easy care Phalaenopsis orchids make great gifts for Mother's Day and for other occasions too.

The “Moth Orchid” hoop or Phalaenopsis is particularly popular because it likes the same conditions as we all do - a nice snug home, not too close to a heater, but away from draughts. They are quite easy to look after if you understand their natural habitat, and will provide you with a beautiful display for many, many weeks.
These are plants of the forest - they like some light, but don’t like to be scorched. Avoid a windowsill where there is constant direct sunlight. Although quite content in warm rooms, the cooler the room (within reason) the longer the flowers will last.
How often you need to water will depend on the room conditions. Typically, about half a teacup a week, but make your own judgement, by feeling the weight of the pot. Try feeling the weight when dry and when well-watered and then try and keep it half-way in between. Water from the top and let the excess drain out through the lightweight compost. These orchids have aerial roots that were built to hang in the warm moist air of the swamp. Do not let the roots stand in water ever - as the roots will suffocate and the plant will die.
Once your orchid has finally finished blooming cut the flower stems right back and find a nice out of the way spot with an even temperature for them to rest. With a bit of luck, they can flower again next year.
Problem solving:
Top tip - try putting a damp rag or sponge underneath the pot and within the pot holder. This keeps the roots moist while letting them breathe.
