Hi! This is my first ever orchid and I have some confusionâŠPlanta says they do not require frequent watering, yet itâs telling me to water twice per weekâŠso which is it?! đ hoping to keep this baby alive and well for as long as possible. Thanks!

My orchid babies, all of these came to me in dire condition, some Iâve been growing for years. Others are new this season. I cleaned them all up and decided to make an orchid log to mimic their natural growing conditions/environment with moss and a piece of driftwood. Itâs going great, and theyâre happy as ever!

Hey everyone, my boyfriend bought this because it was sitting in the orchid section of Home Depot. I tried scanning it on the app and it just says itâs a moth orchid, but it doesnât look like any orchid Iâve ever had.

Iâve been caring for this stressed orchid. Placed it in plastic zip top bag with damp moss and I just noticed a new root growing and the leaf looks healthy. So happy!

Just noticed my orchids one leaf is very yellow with some wilting flowers? Planta said it might need more light. The top feels almost soggy while the bottom of the pot seems much dryer from what I can tell trying to stick my fingers in itâŠâŠ is she dying? Help
Please!

Is my orchid ok? The flowers have died and the stem has been turning brown.
Also, there is new green stem that has been growing, what does it suggest?

Brassolaelia Richard Mueller x Cattleya Triumphans
I love this plant. I got it from a box store. It was piled with a ton of other orchids on a dark shelf. I bought it expecting absolutely nothing.
It blooms multiple times a year. The flowers are large and a lovely yellow orange with an orange magenta spotted lip.

I am growing this orchid hydroponically and had to snip this guy because the section above it was squishy. Is there any way to prop this? It looks healthy!
