My aunt gave me her orchid thats in bad condition. any advice? She kept it in a shady area and never really watered it. there was a flower but it had fallen off. edit, i forgot to mention i repotted it as well, when i got it for some reason it wasnt even in the soil and the previous soil was moldy.
I bought this orchid in June on discount, it finished its bloom cycle. It started to bloom again before the bloom cycle was over. The orchid has a leaf turning yellow. It’s about to bloom. I gently reported the orchid. The roots look great. My concern is that it did not sprout another leaf before this one turns yellow. Is this normal for leaf’s to fall off before another one grows? Using a ceramic pot with better drainage do you have to water a lot more? Thank you for the help.
My poor orchids. Are these beyond saving?
Do I need to repot?
Is this mold?! 😳 Everything else looks healthy. If it is mold, what should I do? I kinda want to transfer her to water instead of leca. 🤔 Is it too moist of an environment the way I have it now? She’s under grow lights for about 8 hours a day.
This is my orchid, I transferred her to water a couple of months ago and she put on another stem. I am so proud!
Finally blooming after waiting and worrying for about a month 😀 Hope this means I’m doing something right.
Just wanted to share this beauty!
Hi. My boyfriend got me this moth orchid today but he accidentally broke the stem, right on a node. How can I fix this for the orchid not to die? The plant is over 10 feet away from a window. It was watered one hour before the incident.
Really enjoying the striking color combination on this one.
I rescued this orchid the other day at Lowe’s from the clearance section. Since I brought it home it has lost 2 flowers. I’ve watered it and put it in a indirect sunny place. About 3 feet from my window. Will the flowers come back? Is there anything I can do to get her to perk back up?
Hey guys do you think she needs repotted?
Does anyone know why the top of my Orchid is dying? Everything else seems healthy. I water every week with about 3-4 ice cubes
Hi guys! I recently inherited and orchid and it is done with its flowering cycle. I need to repot my orchid. How should I prep the plant and repot it?
my coconut orchid blooming!
Hi all. Is there any hope here? 😞
i’m new to orchids, but absolutely love them! my phalaenopsis had 3 stems and they have all eventually turned brown therefore i’ve cut them down. i have a few other orchids, and i haven’t had to do this with any of them. is this completely normal? like everything dies down eventually right???
I couldn’t resist buying this beauty. I love the color ❤️
My Phalaenopsis orchid was accidentally knocked over and it’s stem with flowers & buds snapped off!! I popped it into a vase of water while I figure out if there is anything that can be done with it. The two flowers lasted several days but then fell off to be followed by the buds. The remaining stem looks quite healthy. Can anything be done with it or is it a lost cause?
Hey all, I’m new to this group! Has anyone tried keeping their orchid in water rather than orchid bark? I saw on tiktok that they can do well in just water. I’m interested in trying but skeptical
