 Watering and Care
I just received a new orchid as a graduation present through the mail. It came in a plastic "grow pot" which I was instructed to leave it in, place the plant and 'grow pot' into the new porcelain pot, and cover with orchid bark that arrived with it. I put some under the grow pot, and around as best I could, as well as mounding it up on top of the grow pot a little bit.
My question is now, should I water it? And how? How often should it be watered, and how? I've never kept orchids before, and would like to keep this one alive. It's beautiful. I'll post pictures to help with identification at a later time, after I figure out some general care tips, especially how to water and when.
Thanks!! |
