Orchid Care: How to Achieve Beautiful Blooms and Keep Your Plant Healthy
Orchids are prized for their stunning, long-lasting flowers, but achieving and maintaining these blooms requires thoughtful care. By creating the right conditions and following a few key practices, you can enjoy vibrant flowers while keeping your orchid healthy for years to come.
1. Provide the Right Light
Optimal Light: Orchids, especially Phalaenopsis (moth orchids), thrive in bright, indirect light.
Signs of Proper Light:
Medium-green leaves indicate adequate light.
Dark green leaves mean the orchid needs more light.
Yellowish or scorched leaves suggest too much light.
Tip: Place your orchid near an east- or south-facing window with sheer curtains to filter direct sunlight.
2. Water Properly
Avoid Overwatering: Orchids prefer their roots to dry slightly between waterings. Overwatering is a common cause of root rot.
