what kind of orchid is this?
2 Attachment(s)
I purchased this orchid from ikea (I am a novice orchid grower and didn't want to invest too much into something I could possibly kill) and my kitten snatched the one flower from the spike. I trimmed back the spike since I saw no other buds but the problem is that I don't know what kind it is or how to get it to bloom again. The foliage is very different, long and pleated green leaves folded around each other with purple spots. I hate to say I have a black thumb (more like brown?) but I've never had success with moth orchids re-blooming but I'd love to learn how. If anyone could tell me what kind of orchid this is and how to care for it I would be so grateful!!!

It's a Paphiopedilum
I only have a few - and am far from an expert on them, but they do not want to dry out completely, and like moderate light I believe. General culture info here Paphiopedilum - Orchid Board I'm sure others can help you with more specific info- or questions you may have :) |
thank you so much!
