Adaptable: Happy in bright, indirect light, but equally content chilling in that dim corner of your living room.

Air Purifier: It works the night shift, converting carbon dioxide into oxygen while you sleep.

Think golden, perfectly crispy, tender chicken schnitzel served with chunky, fluffy-on-the-inside chips, a fresh side salad, and a hit of pasta. And because a schnitzel is only as good as its sauce, we’re serving it up with that creamy, dreamy cheese sauce you know and love. 🤤

Just look at this absolute beauty showing off at Greenside Nursery! This magnificent Phalaenopsis Orchid, with its delicate pink-and-white veining and striking yellow heart, is the perfect way to bring a touch of elegant color into your indoor space.

Orchids aren't nearly as high-maintenance as people think! Here are 3 quick tips to keep yours thriving:

☀️ Bright, indirect light: They love bright rooms, but keep them out of harsh, direct sunlight (a spot near an east- or south-facing window is ideal).

💧 Don't overwater: Wait until the roots turn a light silvery-grey color before watering again. If the roots inside the pot are still nice and vibrant green, they are perfectly hydrated!

💨 Watch the drafts: Keep them away from chilly drafts or direct heat sources to prevent the buds from dropping.

Pop by the nursery today to pick out your favorite, or relax and enjoy a delicious treat while you're here. See you soon! ✨
