cymbidium question
I have a quick question about my cymbidium. I don't think it has dried out since i've had it. I tried to repot it at one time, but i was damaging the roots trying to unpot it, so I just left it alone. It seems to be in soil with a little bit of fine bark at the top. It doesn't really look unhappy. I've had it for probably 6 months, and it's lost a few leaves but i believe that's due to age. I water it once a week or once every two weeks. During the summer it wasn't as bad because i could put it outside and I know it dried a lot better than it is no being inside with now air circulation and hot temperatures. I guess I'm just looking for guidance because this is the only orchid i own that NEVER seems to dry out. I'm guessing that it has a lot to do with it being planted in what looks like regular soil. I can see some of the roots from the top of the pot and touch them and they are moist and seem healthy. I just need for someone who is experienced with cymbidiums to tell me if my care methods are ok or if i need to change them. I've attached a picture of the plant too.
