Gorgeous radiant fuchsia Orchid.
Orchids are stunning plants and make great gifts.
Here’s a quick guide to keeping yours happy:
Light: Orchids prefer bright, indirect sunlight. Too much direct sun can scorch their leaves, while too little can hinder blooming.
Watering: These beauties don’t like to sit in water! Water them once a week (or every 10–12 days in cooler seasons), ensuring the pot drains well. Use room-temperature water to avoid shocking the roots.
Humidity: Orchids love a humid environment. If your home is dry, you can mist the plant lightly or place a tray of water near it to help maintain moisture in the air.
Feeding: A balanced, diluted orchid fertilizer applied every couple of weeks during the growing season will keep them thriving.
Potting: Orchids prefer specialized orchid mix (bark-based or moss-based) rather than regular soil, which can suffocate their roots.
Repotting: Refresh the potting medium every 1–2 years to keep roots healthy and prevent rot.
