Orchid Care Secrets: How to Keep Your Orchid Blooming and Thriving

Lighting: Place your orchid in a bright spot with indirect sunlight. Avoid direct afternoon sun, which can scorch leaves.

Watering: Water once a week. Let water run through the pot and drain completely. Do not let the plant sit in water.

Humidity: Orchids enjoy 50–70% humidity. Use a humidity tray or mist lightly.

Feeding: Fertilize every two weeks during active growth, and once a month during rest periods.

Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years using orchid bark. Remove dead roots and old medium.

Resting phase: After blooming, let the plant rest in a cooler spot (18–20°C) with less water for 6–8 weeks. This encourages reblooming.
