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.

Does anyone think this may be some sort of disease, virus, or anything? I feel like the spotting has spread, but that may be paranoia

Hi there! I’ve had this orchid for years and after the last spike died, I have not been able to get it to grow another one. Just repotted this one about 3 months ago. I have 3 other orchids that are thriving so I’m not sure what’s up with this one. Any tips?

I may be going crazy, but did I just find a tiny snail on one of my orchids… I have no words. It’s one of the recent arrivals, may be quarantine time now, I’ve never seen this before

Hi Everyone, I discovered one of my orchids has tons of root rot that I had to cut off. Has maybe one or two tiny ok roots. How do I save it? #needhelp Thanks in advance. Norah

I was wondering why my phalaenopsis orchid stems at the top were turning yellow, Delilah (my orchid) flowered a long time ago and really large new leaves began to start growing on the stems a few moths prior. Then I though she was re-flowering but then her stems went yellowish. I cut them back but the yellowness kept spreading, and I am not sure if it is a result of root rot but I cannot find that as one of the listed symptoms. I really have no idea what is going on and at the moment I hardly have enough time to do anything (the joys of stress) so if there is a really quick easy fix that will be so helpful. Thank you.

Im new to orchids this is my first one and I’m Not sure how to take care of it yet. There’s some withering flowers and I don’t know if I should cut them or let them fall off on their own.

Fairly new to orchids. I have my first basal keiki. It's as big as the mother plant with atleast 5 roots. Mother plant has a terminal spike but shows no signs of dying. Infact all of her flower stems are still green. Do I remove the keiki, or just let it be? The root system is very strong and the plant as a whole is very healthy.

Hi everyone, new to the app and group. I noticed one leaf on my orchid looking a little bumpy and difference in colour. I’ve had this orchid for about 2 years now and she’s on her 2nd round of flowering since I’ve had her. Do I need to be concerned about this? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated
