There are only a few that I have met that seem to care or have the knowledge about taking proper care of the orchids.
|
I've met none that even know how to say "phalaenopsis", let alone care for ANY of the plants.

It is a shame. They could have a small workshop or required online class to teach them. More of the orchids would sell that way too.

I guess they send the same ones to all the stores.
Did you repot yours? I flushed the media with water and almost all of the roots plumped up and looked viable )

You just burst my bubble. A few weeks back I got a P. Cassandra from Lowe's for 9.99 and it rang up 7.99 and I thought I was golden. Ah well, still happy with it.
