Mystic Emerald Kaleidoscope Orchid Information

Mystic Emerald Kaleidoscope Orchid
About The Mystic Emerald Kaleidoscope Orchid

Deep plum speckles cover the mossy green petals of this Mystic Emerald Kaleidoscope Orchid, creating a moody, forest-inspired pattern that adds an intriguing pop of color to any room.

These orchids gets their signature look through a special process where a safe, non-toxic dye is carefully infused into the stem, creating those stunning, gradient petals reminiscent of a kaleidoscope. The dye causes no harm, though please note that when this plant re-blooms, it’ll be its natural white color.

  • Each plant is unique; size and shape fluctuate by season so all measurements are shown as a range
  • Orchid measures between 20–28 inches tall from bottom of the grow pot to the top of the foliage
  • Arrives in a nursery grow pot nestled in your planter choice
  • The actual color of blooms may vary slightly from what is pictured

Every orchid purchase includes a complimentary ticket to our upcoming How to Care for Orchids virtual workshop! You'll receive a link to join live in your order confirmation email. Can't make it? We'll send you the workshop recording and care guide afterward.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you extend the blooming cycle of a Phalaenopsis Orchid?
After the last flower has fallen, if the bloom stalks are still healthy, cut the stem back to a node (where there is a little flap of tissue). With a few weeks of good care, a new bloom stalk might emerge from that node and provide a small flush of blooms that last another 2-3 months!

How do you propagate a Phalaenopsis Orchid?
Unlike most houseplants, you cannot propagate a Phalaenopsis Orchid from a leaf or stem cutting. Instead, they are propagated via a keiki, a genetically identical baby plantlet that occasionally sprouts from a node on a flower spike. Once the keiki grows at least three leaves and several two-inch roots, you can carefully snip and pot it separately.

When is the best time to repot a Phalaenopsis Orchid?
Repot pot-bound orchids after they finish blooming. If you must repot an actively flowering orchid, handle the roots with extreme care to prevent the blossoms from dropping prematurely.

How do you trigger a Phalaenopsis Orchid to rebloom?
Aside from the proper environment and fertilizing, you can try to encourage the next blooming cycle by exposing the orchid to a temporary temperature drop for a few weeks. Placing the plant in a spot that drops to around 55°F to 60°F at night (like near a cool window) signals the orchid to kickstart its next flowering cycle.
