A practical, step-by-step overview for professional buyers: how mini Phalaenopsis moves from a Taiwan export nursery to your market, from import rules and nursery selection to phytosanitary documents, pre-cooling and sea-container logistics.
LIHSIN ORCHIDS supplies mini Phalaenopsis to professional wholesale and export buyers. The minimum order is 10 boxes. Specify your varieties, pot sizes and plant stages when requesting a quotation.
| Pot size (inches) | Plants per box | Plants in 10 boxes of one size |
|---|---|---|
| 1.7 | 288 | 2,880 |
| 2 | 240 | 2,400 |
| 2.5 | 112 | 1,120 |
Totals assume all boxes are the same pot size. List the variety, size and box quantity for each order line. Annual production figures are not live stock; available varieties and plant stages are confirmed with your quotation.
Preparation and shipment usually require one month or longer. Timing varies with the destination airport, flight schedules, ocean-container departure dates and each country’s phytosanitary requirements. Tell us your destination and preferred arrival date so we can confirm a feasible shipment schedule.

Importing Phalaenopsis from Taiwan is the process by which a professional grower, importer or distributor sources mini Phalaenopsis plants from a Taiwanese export nursery and brings them into their own market under that market's plant-import and quarantine rules. Taiwan is one of the world's largest Phalaenopsis exporters, and the practical path below reflects how experienced buyers work with a nursery such as LIHSIN ORCHIDS, a US-export-qualified nursery operating since 1993.
Exact documents and inspection requirements depend on your destination market, but the overall sequence is consistent across most import programs.
Check your country's plant-import and quarantine requirements for live Phalaenopsis, including permits, phytosanitary certificates and any post-entry inspection.
Pick a nursery with real export experience and, for the US, a USDA pre-clearance greenhouse. Confirm pot sizes, variety range and capacity.
Define pot size, plant stage, variety mix, quantity, destination and target shipment window.
The exporter arranges the phytosanitary certificate and export papers; you arrange any destination import permit.
Plants are graded, cleaned, sleeved, pre-cooled and packed on a standardized line for stable transit.
Load into a refrigerated sea container (or air freight) and clear customs and quarantine at the destination.
Plant-import rules vary by country and change over time, so always confirm the current requirements with your destination's plant-health or agriculture authority before you order. The items below are the ones that most often affect Phalaenopsis imports.
Taiwan combines decades of breeding depth, large-scale tissue-culture production and mature export logistics, which is why it is a primary origin for mini Phalaenopsis worldwide.
Taiwanese nurseries hold large libraries of proprietary Phalaenopsis; LIHSIN maintains 220 own varieties with 100+ grex names in the RHS International Orchid Register and 20+ plant variety rights in Taiwan.
Stage-based production and container-scale volume; LIHSIN exports more than 4 million mature plants a year.
Pre-cooling, standardized packing and sea-container experience across the US, Canada, the EU, Japan and South Africa.
