Wanted to show off my newest edition! Her name is Georgie 🖤 however, my love for these beauts don’t keep them alive! This is my third one and I’m determined to keep her as beautiful as she is now! Any tips and tricks are welcome!

RIP Orchid I’m quite aware that I have killed it. I moved it to a different window, went on holiday and came back to it dead. I’ve carried on watering it and 1 of the leaves has got better. My question is: 1. Is it beyond saving? Should I throw it out and buy another 2. If it’s possible to save it should I cut off the dead leaves and stalk? Is it possible for it to grow a new stalk?

Well now i feel dumb, this plant was gifted to my boss and I've been trying to keep it alive I looked at the bottom after MONTHS and it was barely noticeable but I noticed a bit of bubbling when I tilted the glass. I pulled the plant up and sure enough.. like no wonder it's struggling so much

Help! I repotted my orchid while it was blooming, before I knew not to do it the deed had already been done. I repotted her 28 days ago into a new pot out of the store bought plastic pot. The leaves have been drooping ever since and idk what to do to get her healthy again. I’ve increased the watering because the planta doctor feature says it’s under watered. The medium is the bark on bottom, moss in middle around the roots, and bark on top.

I know I'm going to get roped into going to the actual store. They had so many cool orchids at the Emerald city Orchid booth

Can someone please tell me what this is? 👀 Is the stem branching out or is it something else? First-time orchid mom here!

What showing out of my paph? Feeling around my paph’s soil and felt this hard thing and dug it out a bit. Can anyone tell me what it might be? She’s in her original pit (got her at a show 2 weeks ago) and am thinking of replanting in better (my!) soil but don’t want to strew her as she’s in bloom. Any advice?

Fertilizer question I’d like to fertilize my orchids but the mixes I look at all have different ratios (30-10-10 or 20-20-15, etc.). I’ve got Phal, Paph, Oncidium orchids and wonder if I need different fertilizer for each one or what’s best?

Wanted to share these absolutely massive blooms I saw on some of the orchids at the store. Have never seen such large ones before, easily bigger than the palm of my hand —Valentine’s Day specials maybe?

Got one of my orchids to rebloom!!! 🥳🥳🥳 she’s the newer one so hopefully her friend right next to her decides that growing a flower spike is the cool thing to do!

Hi everyone. My first time posting here. I bought this cymbidium last year. They were full of leaves and produce new plants. But they look very bad. I need ded to repot them twice due to roting root. I reduce considerably the watering but still they look not great. Any advice pls.
