A clear cultivation pot for epiphytic orchids, with an open drainage base.
Nominal diameter: Ø 13 cm · Use: Phalaenopsis and other epiphytic orchids.
The Clear Orchid Pot 13 cm makes orchid care easier to read: you can see the roots, follow how the mix dries and check drainage without disturbing the plant. The clear construction is ideal for Phalaenopsis and other epiphytic orchids, while the nominal Ø 13 cm diameter supports an accurate choice based on the actual root system rather than leaf span alone.
The clear body lets you monitor moisture, root condition and mix breakdown without removing the orchid from its pot.

For a smaller or compact root system that fits without force.
For a medium root system that has outgrown its previous smaller pot.
For a developed root system that genuinely needs more room.

Work gently with an airy orchid mix. The crown and stem base remain above the final surface.
If the mix is very dry, water beforehand so active roots are less brittle.
Clear away broken-down material and trim only dead or soft roots with a clean tool.
Support the plant with the crown above the mix and guide flexible roots into a natural position.
Add a coarse, airy mix without over-compacting and confirm that drainage openings remain clear.
If roots were cut, follow the plant and mix condition rather than a fixed schedule. Every watering should drain freely.
