Tigris Phalaenopsis is a striking hybrid orchid admired for its bold, tiger-like spotted or striped patterns on broad, waxy petals. As a seedling plant, it is in a young, vegetative stage and will mature into a compact to medium-sized Phalaenopsis with graceful arching flower spikes bearing multiple long-lasting blooms. Flower colors typically range from creamy white and yellow to golden or orange-toned backgrounds with deep maroon or brown markings, giving a dramatic, exotic appearance.
This warm-growing epiphytic orchid develops thick, fleshy leaves arranged in a rosette and strong aerial roots adapted to airy orchid media. Once mature, it can bloom once or twice a year under good care, with each flowering lasting several weeks to months. Tigris-type Phalaenopsis hybrids are valued by collectors for their unique patterns and excellent display quality.
