# My family got an orchid as a gift 4 years ago. It bloomed the first…

_Geplaatst door Sushi op 2025-04-18_

My family got an orchid as a gift 4 years ago. It bloomed the first year, after all the flowers were gone they never cared about it. It had mushy roots and she was just sad. Just 6months ago, I cut almost all the roots, changed it into water, put it in lots of sunlight. I basically revived it, gave her some love and there you go, gave me back 3 beautiful flowers. One more on the way🌸🥹
