Have a new Orchid....now what?
My great kids bought momma a beautiful Orchid for Mother's Day but I haven't a clue how to properly care for it. It is a Phalaenopsis Orchid. It is in a decorative pot with moss. It feels wet and looks pretty...beyond that I dont know what to do. I love Orchids and have always wanted to have them but am lost as how to care for them. The basics I have read are they like to be moist, sit in a windowsill with moderate indirect sunlight. Any help would be appreciated. This is something I would really like to get in to and have more than one Orchid at some point but I want to do it right and know what I am doing so I dont kill the plants. Thanks!!!
