LOOK NO FURTHER ORCHID LOVER'S, HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO HAVE THE MOST
"SPECTACULAR ORCHID GARDEN" IN YOUR HOME-STREET-TOWN!

Orchids have become one of the most favorite house plants very
quickly. There are many different species of orchids that can be found
naturally and even more hybrids. They are not difficult to grow with
the proper amount of care including water, light, fertilizer and air.
While many species of orchids do enjoy cooler conditions, several
species do very well in temperatures that are around 75 to 85 degrees
Fahrenheit.

One of the easiest orchids to grow is the Phalaenopsis orchid plant.
This species of orchid adapts well to the environment of a home or
office. Different species of orchid’s flowers will last for
different amounts of time. From the time that the first Phalaenopsis
bud opens, the sprays will remain in bloom for the next two to three
months. Where as, the flowers on a Cattleyas orchid plant may last up
to a month in bloom from the time that the bud opens. Some species of
orchids will bloom once a year, while other species will bloom several
times a year and some even bloom continuously.

Another aspect of orchids that makes them so popular is their
fragrance. Some orchids are wonderfully fragrant. But, the scents from
fragrant orchid flowers are extremely variable. Some species of orchid
plants are subtle and other species are extremely strong. The scents
can range from fruity to flowery. More amazing if the fact that many
orchids have familiar aromas such as chocolate, raspberry, coconut,
lilac or citrus.

Orchids should be planted in bark rather then typically potting soil.
They can also be grown in New Zealand sphagnum moss. Orchids need to
be grown in pots that will supply them with good drainage. Typical
potting soil is bad for orchid plants because it cuts off air
circulation at the roots and blocks the drainage of the water. They
should also be watered about once or twice a week. During the summer,
your orchid plant may need to be watered more frequently about every
four to five days. A good rule of thumb to follow is the more heat,
the more water you should give your orchid. The less heat, the less
amount of water. Orchid plants that are potted in New Zealand sphagnum
moss should be water less often then those planted in bark. These
plants can be watered once every seven to ten days.

Depending on the species of orchid, they prefer a lot of light that
is not too strong. They do very well sitting in an east facing window.
Since many orchid species can be found naturally in tropical
conditions, they are used to receiving both shade and sun. Sun
exposure that is too strong. Orchids that are suffering from either
too much light will display yellowing leaves. If this occurs you
should increase the shade that your orchid receives. Yellowing of
orchid leaves may also indicate insufficient feeding. Orchid plants
should be fertilized on a regular basis about every other week. You
should also water your orchid plant before applying the diluted
nutrient solution if the potting media is dry.Orchid Information
