# I rescued this mini orchid from Home Depot a couple of weeks ago. It…

_Posted by Anna on 2024-04-18_

I rescued this mini orchid from Home Depot a couple of weeks ago. It had severe root rot and I’m trying to save it. I cut off all of the rot and had to remove the leaves because there was rot there as well. I clean with perxiode and water and it now propagating in water. Any tips would be helpful, this is my first rescue
