My son brought me this beautiful purple orchid. it matches my window coverings in our living room.
I love orchids, but once they finished blooming, I'm lost. can never get them to bloom again.
any hints any one.
Well, form my experience with orchids, their blooms las veeery long. And it takes at least an equal time to bloom again. And even longer. As long as their leaves are green and the plant healthy, you only need patience. At least that was what I did.
These are beautiful and well worth looking after. I have one orchid that has been blooming every year for the last 8 at the same time each year. Once the blossoms have died, I cut the stem off at the second last node. I give it 2 ice cubes a week throughout the year. It does not like draughts, being moved to a different spot or direct sunlight. Hope this helps your beautiful plant.
