DO NOT water it with ice! regular water is just fine. and be careful not to get water in the crown- where all the leaves meet in the middle. Orchids are prissy and don’t like to touch other plants, and if you notice that any of the roots are mushy, you can just chop them off.

Thank you for this info! I watered it from the bottom up (bottom watering method) and that seemed to work well. Do you know any fertilizers for it? I was gonna get the miracle grow one specifically for orchids😊

bottom watering is great!! call me a bad plant mom but I haven’t ever actually fertilized my plants… i’ve only seen my friends use a liquid fertilizer. I would assume that the miracle grow is good but at least for myself I would dilute if you could and see how your orchid does with a smaller dose?
