Need Help Repotting Female
Default Need Help Repotting

I have a Mini Phalaenopsis and a full size Phalaenopsis that I need to repot however I can't find a smaller sized pot for the mini that I don't think is too big and most pots near me for my full sized don't seem to be big enough!! Any pots y'all can recommend through Amazon or anywhere and sizes would be helpful? My mini is in a 3 inch plastic pot currently and my full size is in a 6.5 inch plastic pot and I hate the plastic look and also is almost 10 years old my grandmother had it with she passed away and I got it and love it so much

Welcome to Orchid Board!

I grow mostly Phalaenopsis orchids, and I buy most of my pots from KKorchid.com. It looks like they have some larger bulb pans here. If you don't like the look of plastic, you could put the plastic pot inside of a decorative ceramic pot.

Also, if you haven't repotted in ten years, you will probably need some new potting material since it breaks down over time. I also get my potting material from KKorchid.

I hope this is helpful! Feel free to ask other questions, or share pictures of your orchids blooming!

Some nurseries offer re-potting assistance. We can't see your geographical location, so we can't offer specific suggestions.
