- Phalaenopsis
Phalaenopsis orchids are possibly the best beginner’s plant. They are called Phals for short. Phals are among the easiest orchids to grow at home. They prefer lower light and warm home temperatures where winter nights do not drop below 60˚F. Phalaenopsis send up long arching sprays of flowers up to 6 inches across, in colors from basic white to pink, yellow, peach, red and green. The flowers resemble wide-winged moths in flight.
