Buy the Most Beautiful Orchids From Your Online Medias Flower Shop!

A local online Medias flower shop can help you a lot. There are several occasions each year, when you must offer something to the persons you care about, and, especially if we are talking about ladies, flowers are a perfect gift. Birthdays, anniversaries, March 8, Dragobete, are the suitable moments for such gestures of appreciation.

But flowers do not only mean bouquets. Cut flowers are beautiful, they can be arranged in a way that catches the eye, but will only resist for a few days. A potted flower, on the other hand, is something that she will enjoy for years. And a pot is a gift just as suitable for a man, as well.

Just open the website of a Medias flower shop and you will find many potted flowers. The stars of the gallery are, no doubt about it, orchids. Most orchids are tropical plants. So, here, in Romania, they are only suitable for indoor growth.

There are about 30,000 orchid species in the world. Some are being intensively cultivated, due to their beauty, with thousands of hybrid cultivars being created.

What you should know, prior to buying such a plant, is that orchids can be divide into two main categories, considering the place where they live (a very important thing, because it determines their nutritive requirements).

Terrestrial Species

Many orchid species take their water and mineral nutrients, just like most plants, from the soil. You will find such species at almost any good online Medias flower shop. This means that these orchids have a network of underground roots. Some of them, such as the popular Cymbidium (an orchid that originates from Southeast Asia and is frequently offered as a gift throughout the world), are semi-terrestrial.

They have underground roots, but also some roots above ground, allowing them to uptake rainwater. This way, they can grow on trees or rocks. The main idea here is that such orchids need soil and must be regularly watered.

Epiphyte Species

The term “epiphyte” comes from Greek and means to grow on a plant. More precisely, we are talking about species growing on the branches of tropical trees. Epiphyte orchids are common, and an online Medias flower shop can offer them to you in large numbers.

How are they able to survive so far away above the soil? Well, they have a complex root system, able to absorb rainwater and to store it, so that the plant can use it in drier periods. Although most of them grow on trees, you can also find them on rocks, even in less humid areas. A very popular example is the Dendrobium (with its over 1,200 species).

Dendrobium is a very appreciated flower, frequently used in wedding arrangements. The problem with epiphyte species is that they are a bit more demanding and that they bloom less often. They do not need watering, but, instead, water must be sprayed onto their aerial roots.

Whatever your preference is, you should know that, when it comes to orchids, options are extremely varied.
