I found a single variegated orchid at the grocery store for $15 today šš
I need your advice on this leaf should I cut this one off. Your advice would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance
Look at my orchid⦠she finally bloomed!!!!
Celebrating the end of the fall semester with this lil treat:)šø
I see a new spike on my Paph. It will be my 1st flower, Iāve had this plant since July from California I ordered a bunch of new orchids.
New flowers!
I had posted a few months back that my crazy orchidās stems sprouted. One is 60ā long the other 40ā. Well she finally bloomed and I thought I would share. I wonder if she will do this again next time. I got her as a birthday gift from my sister 12 years ago. Of course her flowers were dyed blue a let down cuz I was expecting the same colored blooms every time. She was my first.
I would like to know what kind of orchid and how to care for it. Thanks
How would you deal with this orchid? Would you propagate these keikis? Or put some support and let her keep popping out babies like she is going on Maury? She has three big ones with two more on the way.
I wanted to share my orchid I picked up today. I am totally obsessed with her! She is so pretty!
My grandmother has been taking care of these orchids for years, but is wondering why the roots look like this. Can she trim them? Thank you!
I love this time of year. Twinkles twinkling, my paph STILL in bloom, one flower on my key lime hanging in there for dear life, and a bunch of orchids in my collection starting to spike, or in bud. Itās like my orchids are saying⦠I know itās winter in Chicago, but spring is coming Jen. Expecting my mini mark to give me a little holiday cheer in a couple weeks too.
Im not sure what to do⦠do i cut the two old stems off? What do I do with the seed pods and the one that opened
Sooo Iām new at this⦠The blooms on my moth/waterfall orchid are starting to droop, specifically the ones lowest on the stem. Iāve been throwing a few ice cubes in once a week. Is this wrong and what should I do to fix it? TIA
First orchid, the blooms just fell off. What do i do now to ensure further blooms?
OMG!!! My fist ever orchid is giving a new stem!!! Finally after 2 years of being bloomless sheās gonna have flowers soon!!! All thanks to this groups wonderful advice! Thank you!!! Any ideas how to gently redirect the stem out from under the leaf?
My Orchid finally bloomed š
3rd time trying to keep orchids alive and actually trying this time. I got 3 rescues from the grocery store 2 days ago and just today I finally repotted them with orchid bark. How is there spot I chose and is there any tips I should know?
Is this a flower spike coming in? Or is it just an aerial root. It looks different than other aerial roots thatās why Iām asking. This is my first orchid and Iāve only had it about 2 months, I got it at plant con in Dallas.
