Phalaenopsis plant height

Phalaenopsis Bl.

Phalaenopsis plant height is a key morphological trait in DUS testing protocols, characterizing the distance from the substrate to the highest point of the inflorescence or leaf.

In the reference 176 varieties crop Moth Orchid, where this is mentioned in the description.

To assess Phalaenopsis cultivar diversity, international UPOV standards (TG/213/2) are applied, defining height as the distance from the substrate surface to the tip of the flower spike or leaf. Measurements are taken in centimeters and serve as the basis for grouping cultivars into miniature, dwarf, and standard forms.

In commercial floriculture, the height range varies from 10–12 cm for mini-hybrids to 90 cm and above for standard cultivars. Plant height determines planting density, the need for inflorescence staking, and is a criterion for marketability, while excessive stretching caused by light regime violations is considered a loss of ornamental value.
