Compositions of orchids in the interior

Beautiful decorative flowers at home are an integral part of any interior. Compositions from orchids look especially amazing. The beautiful and capricious phalaenopsis (the most common type of "home" orchid) in combination with its "brothers" or other plants will decorate any interior and create a favorable atmosphere in the room.

The duration of an orchid's flowering directly depends on the amount of natural light and fresh air, while we are not talking about direct sunlight on the plant. The most successful arrangement of flower arrangements with phalaenopsis will be a windowsill, preferably on the west or east side. But in this case, all the splendor will be hidden from the eyes, so the best place to “dwell” compositions will be a low table in the middle of the room, which is well ventilated.

Orchids imply the creation of various panels, ikebans and other decorative elements from natural flowers. Keep in mind that phalaenopsis are very showy flowers in themselves, so they will be harmoniously combined with a lot of greenery. For the interior in pastel colors, you can choose compositions from pale pink, white, yellow, lilac and even tiger orchids. Orange and green flowers will create a sunny and iridescent atmosphere in the apartment.

Note that phylenopsis has rather large inflorescences, so you should not create a "synthesis" of orchids and lilies - it will look clumsy and tasteless. A very original combination of orchids will be obtained with herbaceous plants.

Design compositions of orchids in the interior are a sign of good taste. Amazing compositions are placed in wall and floor planters. As for the choice of pots for these plants, you should pay attention to some of the features of orchids.

• These flowers have an aerial root system, so only in soil with a special composition.
• Orchids require spacious, voluminous pots, which receives a lot of light and oxygen. A voluminous planter containing several flower arrangements can be placed on the floor.
• Excessive moisture for phalaenopsis can be fatal. Monitor the soil regularly and remember to get rid of excess water when watering your plants.
• A glass container will allow you to monitor the state of the root system orchids, and in clay pots the plant adapts better to artificial conditions of "living".
• Sometimes the phalaenopsis root system suffers from a lack of light. along with leaves and stems.

It is not enough just to create beautiful compositions of fresh flowers, it is important to arrange them “correctly”. Orchids will look harmonious in the following rooms.

• Living room... Designers advise placing a beautiful composition of amazing flowers in the very "heart" of the house, namely in the "main" room, where the whole family and guests gather. A dining table, sideboard or coffee table will do.

• Kitchen... The “sacred” place of any hostess and the “abode” of sincere gatherings will open its doors to wonderful compositions from phalaenopsis. They can be placed on a bar or table, and a window sill is also perfect. An outdoor planter with orchids can be placed near the window.

• Fireplace... In this case, the flower arrangement implies the presence of a hanging planter, which is attached next to the fireplace. This location guarantees rapturous glances from family and friends.

• Bathroom... Quite an unusual place, but it has its own certain charm. For example, if you decorate the composition with moss, then the orchid will not suffer from excess moisture. In any case, the restroom, decorated with flowers, will delight you with wonderful aromas and aesthetic appearance.

Particularly reverent attitude of the household to the elements of decor is manifested on the eve of the holidays. For example, making a New Year's topiary (a decorative tree made with your own hands) from orchids will not be difficult. The main thing is to show patience and imagination. One of the beautiful compositions that can be used to decorate, for example, a fireplace, is a combination of orchid flowers, live fir branches, natural cones, decorative figurines of deer and eucalyptus leaves.
