Orchids in autumn colors


It’s autumn and at least in San Diego, it’s sometimes hard to tell. There’s a bit of evening chill in the air, the beaches are less crowded and already there’s Christmas trees in the stores. But let’s take time for this fall season first.

To make your home feel comfy and cozy for the fall, try bringing in the colors of autumn leaves in with orchid flowers. Orchids come in such a wide spectrum of colors and varieties, that there are always unique plants for each season. With the capability of cross-breeding, the intergeneric varieties have become more popular and available.

We created this orchid arrangement which features the golden umbers in the phalaenopsis petals, along with the orange of fresh chili peppers to perfectly celebrate the fall season. It’s an artistic accent in your home or office through the Thanksgiving holiday.

These pictures are just some of the varieties that work well with the autumn colors. They are a beautiful and unique way to bring in nature at its best, especially when accented with bronze colored containers or rich brown, woven baskets.
