All Jaxma Orchids are premium grade. Jaxma Super White Grade "A" Phalaenopsis Orchids are the best of the best. You will have a hard time finding an orchid more impressive than this. It is a multi-branching high end mature orchid with impressive roots and leaves; available for only a few short months of the year. We put this high-end orchid into an equally high-end Dutch fiberstone pot making this a truly unique gift that is sure to impress.
The head grower at Jaxma hand selects the Orchids for our Botanica Plants division. He selects the most mature plants with the largest leaves and leaf count. The ability for orchids to have multiple buds and oversized blooms is directly related to the age of the plant and the number and size of the leaves. We pay a premium to get our hands on these plants, be sure to get one while supplies last.
Care for Orchids
Light
In the home, Phalaenopsis orchids enjoy a spot near or in a bright window. You'll want to avoid direct midday sun, but early morning or late afternoon sun is great. The best test for light is to hold your hand a foot above the leaf, if you don’t cast a shadow then you have a proper amount of light. Giving your plant a little too much light is ok, your plant can adapt, but giving your plant too little light, will be like starving it.
TEMPERATURE
A good rule of thumb with Phalaenopsis Orchids is that they are much like humans when it comes to temperature. So, if your hot they are likely hot, if your cold they are likely cold. The ideal temperatures for the orchids range between 55° and 85° F.
WATER
Orchids should be watered thoroughly and then not again until the media is dry. Think as though you are watering a dry sponge. A dry sponge needs to be watered thoroughly in order for it to hold any water at all. A good starting point for most is to water once every week to 10 days. A good test to determine if the orchid is dry is to put your index finger in up to the first knuckle, if you feel any kind of moisture the plant is still wet and does not need watering. Make sure that the plants roots are NOT sitting in water.
