From weddings to wine tastings, orchids add a touch of elegance and flair to any event décor. But orchids can be more than a decoration; they can be the reason for the party! We share four orchid-centered celebrations to consider for your next gathering of friends.
One of the best things about orchids is their extensive lifecycle. You know giving your plant proper attention and care can help it live a long, beautiful life. A repotting party allows you to share your orchid expertise with friends who may have recently received or purchased their first orchid. Before you send out your invitations, be sure to brush up on the proper technique for orchid repotting in this guide.
What better way to show loved ones you care than to make them personalized gifts? Half the fun of giving someone a homemade gift is the effort that you put into creating it. Orchid pot decorating parties are a wonderful way to get hands-on participation and to let people get in touch with their creative sides. Invite children to join in to introduce young minds to the wonderful world of orchids.
A terrarium is not just a decoration; it’s a mini self-contained green sanctuary. A mini orchid is the perfect starting plant for a terrarium. Mix and match different botanical elements like ivy, ferns or moss to personalize your display. Add stones or pebbles for texture and contrast.
Very few flowers complement desserts quite like orchids. One of the reasons orchid wedding cakes are so popular is because fondant orchids are just as beautiful as they are delicious. Topping a cupcake with a lush edible orchid or a sinfully sweet fondant orchid can really turn an ordinary dessert into an extraordinary treat. You can take your baking skills up a notch by adding orchids to a pound cake, buttercream cake or cheesecake. See this guide for a how-to recipe for creating sugar orchids.
