Orchid plants are now the most
popular pot plant in Europe. With so many hundreds of varieties
to choose from, flowering at different times of the year,
it is simply now a matter of choice over colour, shape and
price. Garden centres and supermarkets will sell flowering
orchids that are simply labelled 'orchid' or 'orchidee' and
even if named are most often inaccurate. Unfortunately, growing
instructions are vague and generic with many plants in unsuitable
composts and containers and kept in the wrong environments.
Prices vary dramatically and generally do not indicate a quality,
strong or healthy plant.
Many wishing to buy such plants will never have grown an orchid
before and may believe they die once flowering is over. This
is not at all the case. Most orchids are ideally suited to
centrally heated homes and can make excellent house plants
that flower repeatedly year on year given the right care.
This is the main aim of Regal Orchids;
to de-mystify the idea that orchids are exotic, difficult
to grow and require special care and attention. We most often
say that orchids require benign neglect!
Getting value
