I'm so pleased with my little orchid! I was really worried about her a couple of months back as the flower buds just turned brown and fell off, then the leaves started turning black as you can see in the 2 first photos. Then after repotting in a new pot with fresh orchid bark, moving to a spot that was less sunny and using not just an orchid fertilizer but also an orchid feed and mist spray, she's come back looking lovely and healthy and even grown a new flower stem with buds, one of which is opening! I really didn't think the leaves would revert back to green again (Last 2 pics, with and without the flash on). This is my first orchid bought for me from a friend a couple of years ago so I'm really pleased she's still OK. I'm so chuffed, I had to show her off 😍

    Your good! We had an orchid, then killed it.

      Oh no! They're some chunky ol' roots there. The leaves look so healthy in that photo, what a shame. I think I got lucky really, I was looking everything up on what to do as I'm certainly no expert.

    We were newer plant owners back then, we've killed a lot of plants.
