This lilac speckle Phalaenopsis orchid is dressed in soft lavender petals dusted with tiny dark purple freckles, each bloom slightly different from the next. It is delicate, unusual, and completely unforgettable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFlown direct from Amsterdam in a strictly limited consignment, it stands 70cm tall on three flowering spikes loaded with open blooms and buds still waiting to unfurl. The colour shifts gently depending on the light, sometimes reading as soft pink, sometimes as cool lilac, always with those distinctive dark purple speckles that give each petal its own character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThis is the orchid plant for someone who notices the details.

Water once a week by soaking the roots for 10 minutes, then drain completely. Never let the roots sit in standing water. Feed monthly with orchid fertiliser during spring and summer. When the last bloom drops, cut the spike just above a visible node to encourage a second flush of flowers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eWhy Choose This Orchid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eLilac speckled Phalaenopsis orchids are among the most sought-after colour varieties in the world. They are bred by specialist growers in the Netherlands and produced in small quantities, which means they rarely appear in South African florists. When we get them, they go quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe three-spike form fills a room with colour and presence. The soft lavender tones make it a natural fit for bedrooms, living rooms, and office spaces where you want something calming but striking. It pairs beautifully with neutral interiors and stands out against white, grey, or natural wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eFabulous Flowers has been Cape Town's trusted florist since 1999.

Once the flowers drop, cut the spike above a node and the plant will often produce a new spike within a few months.
