Phalaenopsis Orchid 'Nazaré' – White
Plant description
Hummingbird Orchids ‘Nazaré’ is a flowering Phalaenopsis orchid presented in a glossy pink fish-shaped decorative pot (pot size Ø9 cm). The plant arrives in bloom with neat sprays of small, snow-white flowers and deep green leaves. At delivery, the total height is approximately 25 cm, making it a compact orchid for dining tables, shelves and windows without taking over the space.
The fish pot adds a soft, playful note while keeping a clean silhouette: rounded form, subtle relief details and a smooth glazed surface that is easy to wipe. The white blossoms sit calmly against the pale pink ceramic, giving a light, balanced look that suits Scandinavian interiors where colour is used sparingly and with intent.
Plant care
- Light requirements: Bright, indirect light. A few hours of gentle morning or evening sun is fine; avoid strong midday sun that can scorch leaves.
- Watering routine: Water when the growing medium is almost dry—typically every 7–10 days. Use room-temperature water and let excess water drain fully. Avoid leaving water in the decorative pot.
- Humidity preferences: Moderate humidity (around 40–60%). If the air is very dry, place the orchid near other plants or use a pebble tray (keep the pot above the waterline).
- Temperature range: 18–26°C. Keep away from cold drafts, radiators and hot air vents.

Placement in the home
Place this orchid where you spend time—on a dining table, a kitchen shelf, a sideboard or a bedroom dresser. For best results, choose a spot with steady daylight but no harsh sun. A north- or east-facing window works well; in brighter rooms, keep it a little back from the glass. The low height is practical for tables, as it keeps sight lines clear during meals and gatherings.
Care tips
Phalaenopsis orchids are easier than many expect. Water lightly and consistently rather than frequently. If you water from above, keep water out of the leaf crown to prevent rot. After flowering, you can trim the spike above a node to encourage a secondary bloom, or cut it back once it turns brown. A mild orchid feed every 2–4 weeks during active growth helps support repeat flowering.
To protect the decorative pot, ensure the inner nursery pot drains well. If you use a small saucer or insert, empty any standing water after watering.
