New Orchid blues
Wife received an orchid for her BD on May 29 2021.
With no previous experience with plants in general, let alone orchids, we need advice what our orchid needs are now that the original 9 blooms have all but fallen off.
Details are as follows: Pot is 5" wide at the top, tapering down to about 4" at the bottom. Pot height: 4-1/2". Tota plant height from table-top to top of plant: 25". Watering regimen to date: water from 2 melted ice cubes every 7-8 days. Leaves appear healthy at this time, the bit of dust gently wiped off the TOP of the leaves with a moistened J-cloth. Buds on the long stem look healthy. What do I/we need to know going forward? What to do with the long stem? Will it need repotting? Best soil to use? Where to buy needed stuff in Canada? Amazon? missorchidgirl? And what kind of Orchid is this one? Does it have a name?
See attached pictures - many thanks!!
