How long do orchids live?
Hi everyone,
I was curious about how long orchids can potentially live, whether in the wild or in cultivation. I've heard that they're "potentially immortal," but after a basic internet search I feel that that's probably not true. We know that some are a couple hundred years old, though.
I'm wondering, for those who are very experienced with and knowledgeable about orchids, what your thoughts are about this. What is the oldest orchid in your collection? Have you read anything in particular about orchid lifespans?
Just curious!
