Is my Orchid getting propper air circulation
I'm excited to say that my orchid has been been flowerless now for a year but has recently produced 2 new leaves and is growing a flower spike. ACtually it's still growing the second leaf... anyhow totally exciting. My question though:
The pot my orchid is in is one of those clear plastic deals with the verticle slits for drainage and air flow. This pot was sitting inside a decorative glazed ceramic pot but I grew concerned that the roots might not be getting adequate air because the top rim, and only the rim, of the plastic planter sits snug inside the ceramic pot. Part of me thinks that might be intentional so that the excess moisture can drain out and collect in the bottom of the pot but then there is this other notion that maybe it wasn't getting enough circulation around the plant.
Can someone give their advice?
