Coelogyne Xyrekes Blooming Size

Meet Coelogyne Xyrekes—a classic Coelogyne hybrid celebrated for its arching, pendant spikes and striking lip patterns that glow against the elegant petals and sepals. Flowers present beautifully in hanging displays or on a shelf where the sprays can drape naturally. Many growers also enjoy a soft, pleasant fragrance during peak bloom.

Why you’ll love it

• Showy pendant sprays that open in clusters for a lush display

• Boldly marked lips for a distinctive, collectible look

• Great in baskets or ventilated pots; perfect for bright indoor spots

• Reliable and rewarding with simple, consistent care

Care (simple & practical)

• Light: Bright, filtered light; avoid harsh midday sun.

• Water: Keep evenly moist in active growth—water thoroughly, then allow the top layer to just begin to dry before watering again. Reduce slightly as growth slows.

• Humidity & Air: Enjoys moderate humidity with steady airflow.

• Feeding: Apply a balanced orchid fertilizer weakly, weekly in growth; flush with plain water every few weeks to prevent salt build-up.

• Potting Mix: Use a moisture-retentive yet airy mix—medium bark with a little sphagnum/perlite, or fresh sphagnum in a slotted pot/basket. Repot when new roots start for best recovery.

• Display Tip: Let the spikes drape naturally by placing the plant on a stand or hanging the pot.

What you’ll receive

• 1 healthy Coelogyne Xyrekes plant (budding/blooming size, nursery-grown).

• Plants are carefully packed for safe shipping. Natural variation in flower pattern and plant size is normal. Unless marked spiking/blooming, plants may ship out of bloom.

Quick tips for success

• Consistent moisture + bright, filtered light = strong growth and fuller sprays.

• Avoid letting the potting mix stay soggy—aim for evenly moist with good drainage.

• Refresh the medium every 1–2 seasons to keep roots vigorous.
