The flowers sit on slender, upright spikes above broad, glossy green leaves. The overall look is clean and architectural—well suited to calm Scandinavian interiors, whether you place it on its own or group it with ceramics and glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhalaenopsis orchids are valued for their flowering period and their tidy footprint. With the Ø9 cm pot size, “Rotterdam” fits easily into a decorative cachepot on a sideboard, windowsill, or shelf.
