Pink Champion Phalaenopsis, as a new variety of the big red flower series of Phalaenopsis cultivated by Shantou Institute of Agricultural Sciences, its unique flower color and growth characteristics have attracted much attention in the market. However, regarding whether it belongs to the category of "common commodity", it needs to be considered from multiple angles.
The term "common commodity" in the flower market usually refers to those flower varieties that are common, easily available, relatively affordable in price, and not difficult to maintain. Such flowers are often widely planted and sold because of their strong adaptability and easy propagation.
Characteristics of Pink Champion Phalaenopsis
Pink Champion Phalaenopsis is known for its sharp contrast between pink petals and deep red lip petals, large flowers and neat arrangement. Its inflorescence is long and there are many flowers. Moreover, it is easy to induce flower buds by low-temperature forcing, which makes it have high ornamental value among Phalaenopsis varieties.
This variety grows relatively quickly. From the seedling stage to the flowering stage, it takes about one year and six months. Compared with some Phalaenopsis varieties with longer growth cycles, it is easier to achieve ornamental effects in a short time. Although Pink Champion Phalaenopsis shows strong stress resistance under greenhouse cultivation conditions, its maintenance still requires certain professional knowledge and skills. For example, it is necessary to adjust the cooling and temperature forcing time in due course and pay attention to preventing and controlling pests and diseases.
Based on the above characteristics, although Pink Champion Phalaenopsis has a certain degree of market popularity, its unique flower color, long flowering period, and relatively high ornamental value make its price not affordable. At the same time, its maintenance also requires certain professional knowledge and skills, and not all flower lovers can handle it easily. Therefore, strictly speaking, Pink Champion Phalaenopsis does not completely belong to the category of "common commodity".
