Orchid Flowers & Plants
Orchid plants are one of the most diverse flowers in our flower shop. We source these delicate blooms in all shapes, colours, and sizes and their species types run into many thousands. Many orchids are quite colourful and fragrant and carry quite a few flowering plants too. Among the most popular orchids in our flower shop in London are cymbidiums, Phalaenopsis, vanda, and dendrobiums, which are sometimes called Singapore orchids too. Our lovely florists usually use orchid plants and flowers to create some of the most luxurious floral arrangements that one may have seen ever. For example, it has been often the case lately that we have used vanda orchid heads to create stunning flower bouquets and we often love using these with hydrangeas, roses, and amazing foliages.
From over one-meter Phalaenopsis orchids to amazing vanda plants in glass vases – we have it all. What’s more, is that every one of your orchids delivered can be hugely optimised and mixed with all our other plants and flowers that our wonderful London florists have to choose from in our stores.
Types of Orchids in Our Collection
We also do not just store the usual colours of pink and white, but often carry more unusual purple orchids and yellow orchids. Unlike supermarkets and standard flower shops that tend to sell phalaenopsis types only, we also love to carry other types of orchids such as Vanda, dendrobiums, and cymbidiums. Our London florists are all knowledgeable and know how to arrange orchid plants for your office or home. They are also experts in packaging them and especially in placing them inside some of the beautiful plant and flower vases we have on displays here.

How do I care for my orchid plant?
Interestingly enough orchids like a variety of temperatures and one should always think before choosing a position to place them in your house. For example, after you receive an orchid delivery from our flower delivery fleet, it is best to keep your plant in an unheated room. If it’s a cymbidium plant as when they are placed in a warmer temperature their flower is often reduced greatly. On the other hand, if you receive the ever-popular Phalaenopsis orchid, it is very much advisable to place it into an indoor condition where the minimum temperature is around and at least 18 degrees.
Most orchids require or prefer bright but filtered light – meaning that direct sunlight is not always advisable, but light always is. Our flower delivery drivers usually get the best comments from our esteemed customers who place their orchids on kitchen window stills in the corner with plenty of light, but no direct sunlight. The great thing about this position is that it offers high humidity and one often remembers to water them once a week here too (ideally only once) as the water is often next to them as well. However, in the winter months, watering should be kept to a minimum.
Our florists suggest using the ice-cube watering technique. Simply place an ice cube directly onto the orchid roots and leave it to melt. This will help to improve water absorption and prevent root-rot.
How long can I expect my flowers to last?
The potted orchid plant will last indefinitely with the right amount care and attention – make sure to provide the right amount of water (don’t over feed) and always keep away from excessive cold.
Is orchid plant suitable for a Mother's Day gift?
While it is always to a certain degree a matter of taste, a potted orchid plant has the added value of lasting well beyond the particular occasion and serving as a poignant reminder of the gesture.

Very pleased with the service I received. Would definitely recommend to a friend. Flowers were fresh and last well. Was a bit hesitant to order online as it was my first time but am delighted I went through with it.
