Welcome Spring with Espressos!

Spring has arrived. It is a symbol for new beginnings, the birthing new life and new blooms!

Although many around the country are still experiencing winter weather, we can all invite Spring indoors today.

Espressos are a small variety of phalaenopsis orchids. We like to believe they prove that “good things come in small packages.” Espresso orchids enchant, and they invite us to smile and admire them. Suddenly, we’re overcome with an urge to collect them! Spring has arrived indeed.

Some in our community love placing several Espresso orchids together - pairing different color varieties in a soft rainbow of colors. You can find Espressos in pots with soft pastel colors that complement the mood.

You may also want to admire a single Espresso for its beauty! Many of our fans enjoy placing Espresso orchids on their night stand or on their workspace. Espressos become a sweet, beautiful companion, reminding you of warmer days and new beginnings.

Caring for Espressos is simple. You can follow the same care instructions as you would for any phalaenopsis orchid. Simply remove the grow pot from the decorative pot, dunk the roots in water for 5 minutes, drain fully and return to the decorative pot.

The only thing to keep in mind is that your Espresso may dry a bit more frequently than larger phalaenopsis. Feel the roots for dryness. You may need to water them twice a week, rather than once a week.

Oh, and remember, they make a great hostess gift!

Welcome, Spring and keep blooming!
