Yeah, I tend to try and take preventative action when I buy an orchid from a store. I always look at the roots when I bring it home. If they look fine with no rot, I'd let the orchid finish blooming,...

Oh yes, good point. Well, I live in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, so it's usually pretty humid here, though lately it's been a bit dry (for here). They're indoors, I just set them near a south...

That suuuucks. I haven't really had that happen since I cut the spikes on plants I just buy if I think it needs to be given some real TLC. Which, more often than not, they do. But still, that's a...

Non-mounted, potless orchid?

Since the flower spike of my Wal-mart rescue phal (named Bijou) got cut off today, and the bark was so decayed it was practically soil, I decided it was a good time to pull it out of it's pot to trim...

Well it was worth a shot. If I end up homeless, rooming with a million orchids in a box under a bridge somewhere, I'll know how to avoid being responsible for myself and blame everyone on this forum....
