Enjoy beautiful flowerbeds faster…
Whether you’re an experienced horticulturist or just a beginner, orchids are a gardener’s dream flower. Their special shapes are quite intriguing. And while our interiors can host exotic orchid varieties, others embellish wild meadows and forest edges! There are many terrestrial orchids in Europe, and today new multiplication techniques allow these surprising flowers to be planted in your garden.
These garden orchids alternate cycles of dormancy (winter) and cycles of growth and flowering (late spring or summer). Over the years and successive cycles, perennial orchids grow strong and multiply thanks to the progressive development of underground rhizomes or tubers.
However, since the growth of orchids is often quite slow, it usually takes 2 to 3 years to obtain large flowerbeds, which can carry up to 10 or 20 flower stems.
In order to obtain spectacular flowerbeds more rapidly, Phytesia offers for some varieties, Duo Packs that allow you to obtain a second plant of the same variety for only 5 euros.
In addition to the usual Duo Packs, Phytesia now proposes 2 new Duo Packs.
