Epiphytus . Monopodial plant of medium size. The stem is shortened, the length of the leaves is from 15 to 30 cm. It is similar to Phalaenopsis amabilis , it differs in the structural features of the flower and their smaller size, about 7.5 cm instead of 10 cm in Ph. amablis. In nature, the peak of flowering is from December to April. Peduncle up to 90 cm, cystiform or panicled.
Philippines , Taiwan (almost disappeared).
On tree trunks and branches in shady and humid habitats in primary and secondary forests.
The average temperatures in the Philippines do not change significantly during the year (at night in January 19 ° C, in July 25 ° C; in the afternoon in January 25 ° C, in July 30 ° C). The maximum amount of precipitation in August - September (350-400 mm), the minimum from February to May (100-150 mm).
The first European to discover and describe the Phalaenopsis of aphrodite was the Jesuit, George Joseph Kamel (1661-1706). Linnaeus neglected his work and this beautiful view did not appear on the first list of orchids.
The history of this species in the botanical gardens of Europe began with the fact that in 1837 several plants were sent by ship from Manila to England. Surviving a sea voyage was destined for only one plant from the entire party, which turned out to be the owner of the orchid nursery in Tuting, Mr. Rollison. In the same year, this phalaenopsis bloomed and was mistakenly classified as the then-known species Phalaenopsis amabilis . Only after a long confusion did this plant gain the status of a new species.
The temperature group is warm. For normal flowering, a temperature difference of day / night of 5-8 ° C is desirable.
Lighting requirements: 1000–1200 FC , 10760–12912 lx [4] . It does not tolerate direct sunlight.
