Why this gift works
The Costa Farms Phalaenopsis Orchid is a live moth orchid with two flower spikes and pink-purple blooms, about 27 inches tall, in a 5-inch white ceramic pot. Costa Farms says it likes medium to bright light out of direct afternoon sun and water roughly every 10 to 14 days when the bark or moss dries, and that the blooms can last for months.
Cut flowers are gone in a week; an orchid keeps flowering on the windowsill for months and can bloom again the next year. It suits a grandma who loves something in bloom without the work of a garden.
Who is this gift for?
Great for
- A grandma with a sunny window
- A birthday instead of cut flowers
- A thank-you gift
Think twice if
- Her rooms are dim
- Pets chew her plants
The catch
It ships live in a box, so bloom color and bud count can vary; reblooming takes about a year and some care; and Costa Farms says it is not for eating, so keep it away from pets that chew plants.
Skip if her home is dim, with no bright window.
