Hi! So I just went on a a huge plant shopping spree (thanks Lowe’s’s 75% off plants) and got a beautiful orchid. The problem is that the pot doesn’t have any drainage holes. My understanding is that orchids tend to be very sensitive about overwatering. What’s the best way to water it and keep it happy?
No, it does have drainage holes, because the actual pot is inside the decorative ceramic pot. And they are hard to take out from my experience but are still take out able.

0 likes I made the same mistake thinking the decorative pot was the one it was planted in, until I found out by searching it up that the actual pot was inside it.
