I have had a moth orchid for the last year. Well, yesterday I noticed that the stem is starting to wilt and turn yellow. I have done the same things I have always done and I’m unsure why my plant has started to wilt. If anyone could give me some guidance to help keep my plant from dying, I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you!

The stems and flowers on orchids will eventually die, but if you take proper care of the orchid, it will eventually regrow them. If the leaves are healthy, the orchid itself isn’t dying. I recommend using Miss Orchid Girl on YouTube as a resource for getting the orchid to regrow flowers.
