Things They Don't Tell You About Mini-Phalaenopsis Orchids

Q &A: Do Mini Phalaenopsis Stay Small? One question that orchid buyers have is, “Do mini Phalaenopsis stay small?” Mini Phalaenopsis (or moth orchids) are one of the most sold orchids in big box stores among shoppers who’ve never grown an orchid before. The tiny details of the “teacup” orchid fascinate and capture our attention, kind of like puppies do. But we all know that puppies turn into huge dogs over time and part of that initial cuteness is gone. Dogs are one thing, but what about Phalaenopsis? Mini Phalaenopsis will not grow much more than their initial size on the market. They are already adult size when you purchase them, not a baby version.They might gain a few more leaves and add an inch or two, but not more than that. Mini Phalaenopsis do not grow more than 6 to 10 inches (16 20 25 cm) tall. A common misconception is that the mini Phalaenopsis is just a baby version of a bigger plant and will eventually grow into the huge plant. Another myth about the mini Phal is that they are sprayed will chemicals to remain small, but over time the chemicals wear off and they’ll burst into huge plants. Both these ideas are myths. In this video, I'll go over 5 other myths that are also associated with mini-Phalaenopsis so you'll know exactly what you are getting into.
