Fragrant Orchid Bolgheri | Scented Orange Moth Orchid
Why settle for just a pretty face when you can have a plant that smells as good as it looks? The Phalaenopsis ‘Bolgheri’ is a rare gem in the orchid world, beloved for its stunning copper-orange blooms and its delicate, sweet fragrance, a rarity among common Moth Orchids. With vibrant, warm-toned petals and a contrasting purple-pink lip, the Bolgheri brings a touch of Mediterranean sunset into your home. Its fragrance is most noticeable in the gentle morning light, filling your space with a refreshing, light aroma. Fragrant Orchid Bolgheri is the perfect choice for orchid lovers seeking something unique or for a sophisticated gift that offers a multisensory experience.
Why we love it:
Sweetly Scented: A rare fragrant variety of the classic Phalaenopsis.
Long-Lasting Blooms: Enjoy its vibrant orange flowers for weeks on end.
Beginner Friendly: All the beauty of a rare orchid with the easy-care nature of a Moth Orchid.
Care Instructions
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. An east or west-facing windowsill is ideal. Avoid direct afternoon sun, which can scorch the delicate leaves.
Water: Water according to the growing medium. If your orchid is planted in bark, use the soak-and-drain method: once a week, submerge the nursery pot in lukewarm water for 15 minutes, then allow it to drain completely. If planted in soil, water like other houseplants, allowing excess water to drain away. Never let the orchid sit in standing water, as this can cause root rot.
Humidity: Fragrant Orchid Bolgheri loves a humid environment. They thrive in bright kitchens or bathrooms, or you can mist the aerial roots occasionally to keep them hydrated.
Temperature: Keep it happy in a warm spot (18-24°C). Avoid placing it near cold or direct heat sources, such as radiators.
Pair your orchid with our Orchid Care Gift Set to keep it healthy, vibrant, and blooming for longer with easy, everyday care.”
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is it Pet Friendly? Yes! Phalaenopsis orchids are generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs. While we don't recommend letting your pets snack on those beautiful orange blooms, you can rest easy knowing they are safe for your furry friends.
When is the fragrance strongest? You’ll notice the Bolgheri’s scent most in the morning and early afternoon when the light is bright. The fragrance may be subtle at first, but it often becomes more pronounced as the plant settles into its environment.
What do I do when the flowers fall off? Don’t throw them away! Cut the flower spike back to just above the second "node" (the little bumps on the stem). This often encourages a second flush of blooms.
Why are the roots turning silver? Silver or grey roots are the plant’s way of saying, "I’m thirsty!" After a good soak, healthy roots should turn a vibrant green.
