A bold, cherry-red terrestrial orchid that’s easy to grow and impossible to ignore. This celebrated Phaiocalanthe hybrid (Calanthe × Phaius) is prized for its richly saturated red petals and contrasting white-speckled lip—flowers that look “painted,” even from across the room. Vigorous and forgiving, it’s a fantastic choice if you’ve only grown Phalaenopsis and want a showier, more architectural plant.
Phaiocalanthe Kryptonite ‘Chariots of Fire’ is a vigorous Calanthe × Phaius hybrid known for its saturated cherry-red petals and beautifully patterned white lip. It grows as a terrestrial orchid, forming elegant fans of foliage and rewarding you with a dramatic display of multiple blooms per spike. Give it bright, indirect light, keep the medium evenly moist (never soggy), and feed lightly during active growth. Plant in a roomy pot using a moisture-retentive but free-draining mix such as coco chips with a bit of bark/perlite/charcoal. Repot every 12–18 months as the mix ages. We ship a well-established plant, potted and ready to thrive in your home or office.

Is it like a Phalaenopsis?
Care is similar in light level, but this is a terrestrial orchid—keep it in a potting mix that holds moisture yet drains well, rather than mounting or using pure bark.
When should I repot?
When the plant fills its pot or the mix breaks down—typically every 12–18 months. Shift to one size larger; don’t over-pot.
