Elegant and long-lasting, orchids make a beautiful gift for any occasion. At Roses Are Red, we offer Phalaenopsis orchids (living plants that can bloom for months and rebloom for years) and Cymbidium orchids when in season (elegant cut flower bouquets known for their striking beauty and long vase life). Every orchid gift is carefully prepared by our florists and delivered throughout Auckland, with a photo sent before dispatch so you can see exactly what your recipient will receive.
Orchids are one of the longest-lasting flower gifts you can send.
Unlike many fresh flowers, Cymbidium orchid stems can often be enjoyed for several weeks in a vase, while a healthy Phalaenopsis orchid plant can continue producing spectacular blooms for months and, with proper care, for many years.
Whether you're looking for an elegant corporate gift, a sophisticated birthday present, a thoughtful sympathy tribute or a stylish housewarming gift, orchids offer timeless beauty and exceptional value.
Although both are orchids, they are quite different gifts.
Phalaenopsis, commonly known as Moth Orchids, are living indoor plants that produce elegant arching stems of flowers. With proper care, the blooms can last for several months and the plant can flower again year after year.
They are perfect for recipients who enjoy indoor plants and long-lasting gifts.
Our Cymbidium orchid bouquets and orchid stems are cut flowers rather than potted plants. They are prized for their large blooms, striking colours and exceptional vase life.
Each stem carries multiple flowers, creating an elegant display that's ideal for birthdays, celebrations, sympathy flowers and corporate gifting.
A Phalaenopsis orchid is surprisingly easy to care for.
With the right care, your orchid can continue flowering for years.
Cymbidium orchids are among the longest-lasting cut flowers available.
For the longest vase life:
With proper care, Cymbidium orchids can often be enjoyed for two to four weeks, making them one of the longest-lasting cut flowers available.
Phalaenopsis orchids are living indoor plants that can flower repeatedly for many years with the right care. Cymbidium orchids are cut flowers that are valued for their large blooms, elegant appearance and exceptional vase life.
Phalaenopsis orchids can remain in flower for several months and continue blooming year after year with proper care. Cut Cymbidium orchid stems can often last two to four weeks in a vase.
No. Phalaenopsis orchids are one of the easiest flowering houseplants to grow indoors, while cut Cymbidium orchids require only simple fresh flower care such as clean water and occasional stem trimming.
If you`re looking for a long-lasting indoor plant, choose a mini orchid (Phalaenopsis). If you`d prefer a fresh flower bouquet with dramatic blooms and exceptional vase life, a Cymbidium orchid bouquet or orchid stems are an excellent choice when in season.
Yes. We offer same-day orchid delivery throughout most Auckland suburbs, Monday to Saturday, when you order before our daily cut-off time.
We guarantee your gift will look as close as possible to what is described online and send you a digital photo when the gift is dispatched.
