My orchid isn’t blooming and hasn’t for over a month. Could she be over heated? Should I bring her inside?

I’m new to orchids. I haven’t had my miniature orchid for long. It used to have many buds and flowers but now it looks like just a stick with pretty, long leaves. If you have any tips or tricks please comment. Thank you!🤗🤗🤗 Edit: I live in Florida. Could it be overheated?

hi all! i’m pretty new to orchids and trying to revive this that got super dehydrated when my coworker was out suddenly for a few months. since i repotted a few months ago there’s a new leaf and some new baby roots that were coming in but they seem to have stopped growing. any idea what’s going on or how i can help it? i did treat with hydrogen peroxide for possible crown rot after the baby roots died. (added a pic at the end from when i started the rescue attempt so you can see the progress so far.) any advice would be much appreciated!

Hello! About a two months ago I reported my orchid and it fell out of its pit and lost all of its leaves, ever since it has had zero growth and I don’t know how to encourage growth, any tips?

Hi everyone! I was super excited to get this orchid but the leave are dropping. Is this normal? Is it going dormant? And I doing something wrong?

I’ve seen a lot of posts asking about watering orchids. Which got me curious - how do you water your orchids? What’s your method? How often? What are the triggers to water? What kind of water? Any suggestions for people wanting or just starting to dip their toes into the waters of orchid tending?

I am new to the plant life and have an abundance of new plants due to the unfortunate circumstance of two funerals of my close family members within a couple of weeks. I want to honor my loved ones by keeping every plant I received alive and thriving. The orchid is the one that gives me the most worry probably because of the stigma that orchids are particularly fussy. Will someone just look at this orchid and tell me why the rest of the buds won’t open after being in my home a month. I went a little aggressive and put him outside the past 2 sunny days so hoping I didn’t do any lasting damage. I was just impatient and wanting these buds to to flower. These are his normal conditions and I move him exposure to grow light x couple of hours per day. Also just watered today because of the excessive sun exposure

Has anyone tried growing from seed/propagation? I’m thinking of trying and wanted to know if anyone has had any success and could offer some advise…

Just got this beauty yesterday! Flower is the size of my hand! The pedals shimmer in the sunlight. So gorgeous! Orchids are just the most elegant plants! So blessed to experience their beauty and care for them.

Just got them from an estate sale any tips or anything I need to do besides regular care (wasn’t sure if I need to prune anything) I’m new to orchids.

This is my first orchid. When I got this plant the roots were on top of the pot similar to this. I didn’t know that they were roots, I thought it was decoration. Should the roots be exposed like that or should they be in the pot?

I got this gal from Lowe’s Mother’s Day weekend and she was jam packed with sphagnum moss in a pot that didn’t breath at all. When I got home first thing I did was water it and then I realized that she needed to be reported so she wouldn’t rot in that moss and plastic pot. She seems pretty happy and isn’t dropping flowers (like the first attempt did) but I notice even after letting her soak for a few hours till her roots turn bright green again that the leaves are still wrinkled. How can I remedy the wrinkled leaves? Is that permanent or is she still thirsty? I am afraid of overwatering.
