Phalaenopsis Orchid Trevino Set – Pink

Plant description

This set includes two Phalaenopsis (moth) orchids in the cultivar name Trevino, each delivered in a Ø9 cm nursery pot with a matching pot sleeve (“potmate”). The flowers appear in a muted, old-rose pink with a lighter centre, paired with glossy green leaves and visible aerial roots—typical of healthy Phalaenopsis. At delivery, the plants are approximately 35–45 cm tall, making them an easy fit for a coffee table, windowsill, or kitchen counter without taking up much space.

Phalaenopsis orchids are chosen for their long flowering period and reliable indoor performance. Trevino’s softer pink tone works well in calm Scandinavian interiors where colour is used with restraint—warm enough to add interest, yet neutral enough to combine with light woods, stone, ceramics, and simple glassware.

Plant care

• Light requirements: Bright, indirect light. A spot near an east or west-facing window is ideal. Avoid strong midday sun, which can scorch leaves and fade flowers.
• Watering routine: Water sparingly when the potting mix has almost dried out (often every 7–10 days, depending on season). Let excess water drain fully—Phalaenopsis prefers airy roots and does not tolerate standing water.
• Humidity preferences: Moderate humidity (around 40–60%). If your home is very dry in winter, place the pot on a tray with pebbles and water (keeping the pot above the waterline).
• Temperature range: Typical indoor temperatures 18–26°C. Avoid cold drafts and placing the plant directly above radiators.

Growth and characteristics

• Plant species: Phalaenopsis (moth orchid)
• Approximate size at delivery: 35–45 cm tall, pot size Ø9 cm
• Flowering: Delivered with 2–3 flower spikes per plant (depending on current availability). Natural variations in spike count and bloom stage can occur.
• Growth habit: Compact rosette of thick, glossy leaves with upright flower spikes and occasional aerial roots.

Placement in the home

For the best flowering result, place your orchids where they receive steady daylight without harsh sun—on a bright windowsill with a sheer curtain, a side table near a window, or a kitchen counter away from heat and steam. Using two plants makes it easy to create balance: place them as a pair on a dining table, or separate them on a shelf and a console for a consistent accent throughout the home.

Care tips

Use a small amount of water and avoid wetting the crown (the centre where leaves meet). If you use the “ice cube” method, do so cautiously and ensure the melt water doesn’t sit against the leaves. When the flowering period ends, you can cut the spike above a node for a possible re-bloom, or cut it at the base to support new growth. Wipe dust from leaves with a soft, slightly damp cloth to keep the plant looking fresh and to support photosynthesis.
