It might need water! Basil likes to be wet :)

Second the basil for moistness. As for the orchid, not sure but I talked to someone that has more experience and they apparently like shade and temp swings to bring new flowers out haha

Orchids also need to be fertilized to flower again! Look for a mix that’s higher on potassium (the K of NPK)

My orchids bloomed after a cold snap. They are on a windowsill with a frosted window so getting filtered light. Be patient. I had my first orchid for 2.5 years before it produced flowers.

Some orchids only bloom 1-2 times a year.
