Stunning long flowering orchid. Position: bright but indirect light Soil: these plants do not need to grow in compost, but if potting up, use a specialist orchid compost Rate of growth: average Hardiness: tender (indoors only) Current height: approximately 55cm (+ or – 10% including the pot) Pot cover: choose a 12.5cm orchid pot cover to give a good fit over the pot Well here is the perfect present for chocolate lovers – an orchid called ‘Chocolate Drops’! This compact variety initially has lime green buds flecked with maroon, opening to show stunning rich blackcurrant-coloured flowers with a white lip, flushed with pink and blackcurrant. Although the blooms are not large it certainly makes up for this with the quantity per stem that most importantly last for many weeks. This really is a stunning new introduction with the added benefit of helping to purify the air. Home care: Keep the compost moist during the warmer months, but in winter you should reduce the amount it gets, and only water them occasionally. Ideally when watering, you should let them stand in a tray of water (or kitchen sink) so they can soak up as much as they like for an hour or two. Afterwards, let the excess water drain away completely. It is always best to give them a good soak when they get quite dry, rather than watering little and often. Their preference is for soft, tepid water. They love humidity, so a bright kitchen or bathroom would be ideal, and mist the leaves with water occasionally, especially if they are in a heated room. Don’t worry if the roots grow outside the pot. In their native environment, they grow in the crooks of branches, and use these aerial roots to absorb water from the air. They do not mind being overcrowded in their pots, so you only need to repot them when the growth starts to suffer. They usually only send up flower spikes once a year, however you may encourage a second flush of flowers to form more quickly if you trim back the stem to just above the first node immediately after they have finished flowering. They prefer even temperatures, so try not to have big drops at night time.
