Phalaenopsis 'Yellow Chocolate' (variation & peloric) *scented

Phalaenopsis KS Balm ‘Yellow Chocolate’ is a fragrant hybrid, appreciated for its warm shades and flowers that can remain decorative for weeks at a time. Its care follows the classic Phalaenopsis routine: filtered light, well-aerated roots, and watering according to the substrate’s actual drying rate.

Light and temperature. Provide plenty of filtered light near an east-facing window or away from south-facing glass. Avoid strong sunlight, cold temperatures, and hot air from radiators. A stable indoor temperature and gentle ventilation are sufficient.

Watering and fertilizing. Water when the roots turn silvery and the bark is almost dry; allow the water to drain completely. During the active growing season, apply diluted orchid fertilizer after watering.

Substrate and flower spikes. Repot after flowering or when the bark has broken down, using an airy orchid substrate. A green flower spike should not be cut automatically; it may branch. Cut it only after it has completely dried.
