# Title: Phalaenopsis Orchid Gibraltar – White ## Description: Plant description The Kolibri Orchids ‘Gibraltar’ Phalaenopsis is a live, flowering moth orchid with compact growth and a clean, modern look. It is delivered in a Ø9 cm grower pot and stands at an approx. height of 45 cm at the time of shipment. The flowers are white with a distinct pink-red centre, carried on multiple upright stems for a balanced silhouette. (Decorative outer pot not included.) Phalaenopsis orchids are valued for their long-lasting blooms and tidy form. The thick, glossy green leaves store moisture, which makes this plant more forgiving than many flowering houseplants. With steady light and a simple watering routine, ‘Gibraltar’ will stay neat on a windowsill, sideboard, or desk without taking up much space. Plant care Light requirements: Bright, indirect light. A light position near an east or west-facing window is ideal; avoid strong midday sun that can scorch the leaves. Watering routine: About once a week, depending on season and indoor climate. Water by immersing the inner grower pot in lukewarm water for 5–10 minutes, then let it drain fully before placing it back. Humidity preferences: Moderate humidity (around 40–60%). Keep away from dry heat sources; occasional misting around (not into) the flowers can help in very dry rooms. Temperature range: 17–22°C is ideal. Avoid cold drafts and placing the orchid directly above radiators or near a stove. Growth and characteristics Plant species: Phalaenopsis (moth orchid) Approx. size at delivery: Around 45 cm tall; grower pot Ø9 cm Flower type: White blooms with a pink-red centre; buds may continue opening after arrival Growth habit: Compact, upright flowering stems with a low rosette of sturdy leaves Placement in the home This orchid suits spaces where you want a calm, finished look with minimal maintenance. Place it on a kitchen windowsill with filtered light, a hallway console that stays warm and bright, or a bedside table away from direct sun. For a clean Scandinavian presentation, set the grower pot into a simple ceramic cachepot; leave a little space at the bottom so excess water never sits around the roots. Care tips Let the plant guide you: Phalaenopsis roots are a good indicator of watering needs. If the visible roots look silvery grey, it’s time to water; if they are deep green, wait a few days. Feed with a dedicated orchid fertiliser about once every two months during active growth and flowering. Keep the orchid away from a fruit bowl, as ripening fruit releases ethylene gas that can shorten flowering time. Shipping This plant is shipped directly from a Netherlands grower to ensure freshness and plant health during transport.
