Care Guide
Light Bright, indirect light
Place near an east-facing window or a few feet back from a bright window. Avoid harsh midday sun directly on the leaves.
Water When the medium approaches dry
Water thoroughly, then allow excess to drain. Do not let the pot sit in standing water. Adjust frequency based on light, temperature, and humidity.
How to know it’s time: The pot feels lighter and the medium looks dry near the surface. If it’s still damp, wait another day.
Humidity Moderate is ideal
Average indoor humidity works well. If your air is very dry, use a pebble tray to increase humidity around the plant (keep the pot above the waterline).
Temperature Keep it comfortable
Typical indoor temperatures are suitable. Avoid cold drafts and heat vents to protect blooms and reduce stress.
Beginner success rule: Slightly dry is safer than constantly wet roots. When in doubt, re-check tomorrow.
48-Hour Arrival & Unboxing
Live plants may look a little travel-worn after shipping. A simple reset helps your orchid recover quickly.
| When | What to Do | Why It Helps |
|---|---|---|
| Immediately | Unbox promptly. Remove packing gently around blooms/spike. | Prevents bruising and lets the plant breathe. |
| First 2–6 hours | Place in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sun day one. | Reduces stress while acclimating. |
| First 24 hours | Check the medium. If moist, wait before watering. | Prevents overwatering. |
| Within 48 hours | Water only if approaching dry. Drain fully. | Supports recovery without stressing roots. |
What’s normal after shipping: Minor droop, small cosmetic marks, or a few buds that don’t open. Most orchids rebound quickly in stable light and careful watering.

FAQs
Is this orchid good for beginners?
Yes. Phalaenopsis orchids are among the most beginner-friendly orchids when given bright, indirect light and careful watering.
How often should I water a Phalaenopsis orchid?
Water when the medium approaches dry. Many homes land around weekly, but light, temperature, and humidity can change the schedule.
What does “single spike” mean?
It means the orchid is shipped with one flowering stem (spike), creating a clean, minimalist bloom presentation.
Where should I place my orchid indoors?
Choose a bright spot with indirect light—near an east-facing window or a few feet back from a sunny window often works well.
Will it bloom again?
With consistent care, many Phalaenopsis orchids rebloom. After flowering, maintain regular care and be patient as the plant cycles.
Will my orchid look exactly like the photos?
Live plants vary naturally. Bloom count and color tone can differ slightly—part of what makes each plant unique.
