    It’s probably just losing its blooms. This is very normal for orchids and they will bloom again. Please be patient with her as some people aren’t and just throw them away.

      I will definitely be patient with her and question should’ve i repot her when she doesn’t have any blooms cause this pot looks small? And should i continue to use ice to water her every week in summer. I am new to this beauty!

      Doesn’t look like it needs repotting yet what is it potted in? I can’t quite tell, is it bark? The majority of those roots look super healthy so far but don’t water again until the roots go white as I see some slight browning. If orchid roots are green it doesn’t need a drink yet.

    Also orchids love humidity and not hot or cold drafts from air vents, just a tip to help her thrive for the long haul!

    It’s a normal part of the life cycle. Once the blooms drop you can cut the stalk back to the base. Good time to refresh the substrate and have a look at the roots. Now is the time it will focus on root growth and possibly put out a new leaf 🍃

      She has put out 2 new ones so far and they are beautiful. I am just new to this one! Do u think i should report once all the blooms are gone?

      She was little when I received her also. So her leaves got huge and she put out 3 new ones not 2!!! 🍃

    Please please don’t water with ice. Water with lukewarm or room temp water. Orchids are tropical plants so they need plenty of bright indirect light and humidity. When the roots are green, don’t water. When roots are gray it needs water. Don’t cut the stalk until it’s brown and dead because you can get more blooms from the same stalk. I got my recent orchid on clearance $2 from Walmart cause it was “dead”. I cut the dead brown half of the stalk off and left the rest of it I now have blooms starting to grow out. ☺️

      The best rule of thumb when deciding to cut something off of any plant is, if it’s not brown and dead leave it alone. 😌

    Yes, I also recommend to not use ice cubes. It's not natural for plants to be watered with ice. I personally use lukewarm water approx every 8-10 days. I've had my orchid for 2 years and it's bloomed multiple times. 😊
