Artificial Large Cream Phalaenopsis Orchid in Stone-look Bowl

The Phalaenopsis is the plant most people are convinced they've killed. In reality, it's usually just sulking, refusing to rebloom and sitting there as a bare green stalk for the best part of a year. This one stays in full bloom, on every stem, permanently. The flowers are a soft cream-white, faintly speckled at the throat with that yellow-green centre the real ones have. They arch over on tall stems the way a healthy orchid does, with smaller buds still forming at the tips so it reads as a plant caught mid-flower rather than a static display. Look at the base and you'll see why it convinces. Thick, glossy leaves and pale aerial roots spilling over the rim of the bowl, exactly as they do on a real one that's settled into its pot. It's set into moss in a wide, limewashed stone-effect bowl that suits the display's weight. It has the scale for a hallway console, a dining table or a kitchen island where it can be seen from all sides. The orchid that actually stays in flower. No bare stalks by spring.
