Variegated Phalaenopsis ‘Coffey’ (Phalaenopsis hybrid)

SKU: A2601-2

2.5" Pot Size

This rare mini orchid has unusual variegated leaves with green centers and creamy yellow edges. Spikes of pinkish-purple flowers add a beautiful contrast to the variegated leaves and it often has 7-10 blooms per spike once the plant is mature. ‘Coffey’ is known for its stable variegation. It also has a tendency to double spike, which creates a sensational show. Flowers last 2 months or more. We ship blooming size plants not necessarily in spike.

Tips for Success:

• Grow in an east or west window or under lights.• Avoid growing areas with hot noon day sun.• Bring the moss to near dryness between waterings,   then thoroughly saturate the moss (it’s better to under   water a little than over water).• To bring into flower, subject the plant to temperatures in   the high to mid 50’s at night for a period of four weeks.   This is most easily done in the fall.• Fertilize only lightly and then only during the active   growing season which is usually spring to fall.• For long term growth, use a clay pot. Clay will ensure a   quicker drying time for the moss and in turn will keep   the roots healthy.
