All around newbie....

Hi folks!
I'm not only new to the board but also to orchids. Well, last mothers day my son gave me my first orchid. I don't know what it is other than pretty. It even bloomed this past Feb...and still has blooms. Now for Valentines day this year I asked for the mini size ones and received 3. Sad to say they are not looking so happy but then I fell 'victim' to 'Just Add Ice' even though my orchids are not from them that I know of....just Walmart.

Needless to say, I need mega help with these babies. I soaked them today until water ran through them. I hope they will snap back to great shape.

My bigger orchid that's a year old I would like to repot into a glass dish I have that I call an 'orchid' pot. I thought I could turn to someone with more experience to help me learn. I'm great at African Violets...LOL...so I'm hopeful I can become pretty successful with orchids.

Anyone want to direct me to the best info on repotting and caring for my beauties.

Good to be here!
Anita
