The Phalaenopsis Little Gem Stripes (variegata) is a coveted miniature orchid prized for its dual variegation - striped leaves and delicately pink-striped 3-4cm white flowers. Thriving in stable 18-26°C temperatures, this 10-15cm plant is perfect for terrariums or bright windowsills, requiring only low-medium light (1,000-1,800 lux) to maintain its distinctive foliage patterns. Water with rainwater or distilled water when roots turn silvery, and grow in small pots with sphagnum moss to match its petite size. While rare due to its stable variegation, this beginner-friendly orchid blooms nearly year-round, with flowers echoing the leaf stripes for a harmonious display. Remove any all-green growths to preserve the variegation.
