The Phaelaenopsis is one of the easiest orchids to grow indoors in a sunny window setting, and can be treated much as any other houseplant. This particular orchid has a slightly greenish cast with the lovely plum and striking hot carnation pink labellum. Some of the examples I used for this design had the plum striations, others with the same name did not .
