In recent taxonomy, \u003cem\u003ePhalaenopsis speciosa\u003c\/em\u003e is often treated as a synonym; both names remain in use commercially. The plant is medium-sized, with leaves up to 30 cm long and 2–5 lateral, arching flower spikes, often with a slightly zigzag appearance. The flowers are waxy, glossy, strongly fragrant, usually around 4.5 cm across, with natural variation in color and pattern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFlowering is more frequent in spring, but may also occur during other warm seasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 'Green' selection retains the species’ fragrant flowers. Commercial note: the mention “plant with spike\/flowers\/buds” means that at least one of these conditions applies at the time of shipping, not necessarily all of them at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRequires moderate to bright, filtered light\u003c\/strong\u003e, approximately 18,000–22,000 lux, with protection from intense sunlight and, ideally, around 12 hours of light per day. Suitable temperatures are around 22–28°C during the day and 18–22°C at night; a difference of 3–4°C between day and night helps encourage flowering. It does not require a severe rest period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWater when the substrate has dried out\u003c\/strong\u003e, then allow the water to drain completely. Do not let water remain trapped between the leaves. In a pot, humidity of 55–60% is usually sufficient; when mounted, aim for around ~70%. During active growth, fertilize with a diluted solution—approximately half the recommended dose—after watering, about every third watering, using \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sicretgarden.com\/products\/fertilizant-premium-pentru-orhidee\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eorchid fertilizer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.

Repot after flowering, when new roots appear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf the plant produces many spikes but few flowers, check the light and fertilization. Bud drop is often caused by dry air, sudden relocation, or damaged roots. Soft roots and a sour smell indicate overwatering.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secret Garden Taiwan","offers":[{"title":"without flowers, leaves with defects (2.5 inch pot ~ 9cm)","offer_id":41090274427078,"sku":"B13-20 \/B43-24 def","price":111.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":false},{"title":"initiated stem (2.5 inch pot ~ 9cm)","offer_id":41090274459846,"sku":"B13-20 \/B43-24 tije","price":146.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0558\/5551\/3798\/products\/Phalaenopsistetraspis_Green_3.jpg?v=1656435106","url":"https:\/\/sicretgarden.com\/en-dk\/products\/phalaenopsis-tetraspis-green","provider":"Secret Garden Plant Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
