This poor lady hasn’t bloomed in over a year. I’ve tried everything that I’ve read to do. Her roots are not green at all, underneath. She’s now in bark with a little moss wrapped around her roots. Any tips?

I inherited an orchid from my mom two years ago and it finally bloomed back in April. Sadly after leaving it in my hot apartment for a long weekend, all the petals dropped. I’m trying to nurse it back to health and have no idea where to start - should I repot it? What should I do with all the visible roots? Please help! - Aspiring botanist

Okay orchid lovers. I know phals are our pals but what other types of orchids are you in to? The photo is my Brassolaelia Richard Mueller x Cattleya Triumphans.

Hey there! This moth orchid has been slowly dying for months and I have no idea how to resurrect it. It’s been repotted into sphagnum moss and kept humid, been outside while it’s hot and lots of summer rain, maybe 4h of direct sunlight but lots of indirect. Any advice?

This is my gorgeous orchid Snow White, she is a classic moth orchid and I have had her for maybe 2 months. When I got back from vacation her leaves were droopy. I have no idea what happened or what is happening. Her roots are green and healthy and I don’t know what wrong! Thanks in advance ❤️

I just replanted my Orchid into a bigger pot a couple days ago and now it looks like it’s dying?? I water it once a week and it has sunlight. Any advice on what I might be doing wrong. When I replanted there looks to be a new sprout coming up also.

Question on orchids I’m unfamiliar with the cycle is it normal for it to start to loose a few blooms every now and then. I have a mini orchid and she’s starting to kill off a few blooms her watering is perfect I soak her through and give her time to drain off access. She has healthy blooms and a few she’s killing off. Is there a particular pattern for growing or? I’m unfamiliar with orchids and their cycle I just don’t want her to die on me she’s absolutely beautiful and is one of my favorite plants in my care. On the plus her new leaf growth has begun to put out a new leaf. If it is her time to rest any suggestions on maintenance? If it is tho she has a beautiful wardian terrarium waiting for her when she’s ready to rest.
