The Phalaenopsis bellina 'Fire' is an extraordinary colour variant of the famed Bornean species, producing 5-6cm blazing orange-yellow flowers with red spotting and an intense citrus-rose fragrance. Thriving in steamy lowland conditions (24-32°C with 70-85% humidity), this medium-sized orchid demands consistent moisture in sphagnum moss or fine bark. Unlike standard greenish bellinas, the 'Fire' mutation exhibits 30% increased pigment concentration, creating sunset-like blooms that perfume entire rooms at midday. With fewer than 100 cloned specimens circulating among collectors, it represents a true trophy for enthusiasts. Provide dappled light (1,200-1,800 lux) and excellent air movement to mimic its natural riverine habitat.
As with any orchid, it's essential to monitor the specific needs of your Phalaenopsis bellina Fire × sib and adjust care accordingly based on your growing conditions and observations.
