Phal. parishii (mount)

Very miniature Phal from the Himalayas, India, and neighboring regions. Produces tiny white flowers with a pink lip from compact spikes that have a sweet burnt match smell. Great for terrariums but can be grown potted if in fast draining media. 

Blooms are not of the plant you will receive. Some variation in color/shape may be observed. Blooming size plant mounted on plastic placard.

PHALAENOPSIS CARE INFO:

Potting mix: Coarse-fine bark or mounted with moss. Repot in Spring once every other year as the bark begins to break down. Don't move up in pot size until fully root bound. 

Light: Bright indirect-medium light. Not picky. Bright North/East facing. Shaded South/West facing is ok with good watering and humidity. 

Water: Water when media is dry. Prefers wet/dry cycle similar to most Phals. Decrease in winter, this variety likes to have a slightly drier rest period. 

Temp: Intermediate-Warm (60F min night, 90F max day). They often spike in winter. Tolerant of extremes.

Humidity: 40-80%, not picky with adequate watering. Top dress with moss to help maintain humidity near the base of the plant. 

Fertilizing: 1/4-1/2 strength urea-free fertilizer, every other watering as new roots and leaves emerge. Flush the pot with water once monthly to remove mineral build up. Decrease or stop in Winter.
