Care Guide

Orchid Care Guide — Simple. Gentle. Patient.

Orchids reward attention, not effort. Follow these four principles and yours will bloom for years.

Four principles of orchid care

Water weekly

A thorough soak once a week is far better than frequent sprinkles. Let roots dry between waterings.

Bright, indirect light

An east-facing window is ideal. Direct sun scorches; deep shade prevents bloom.

Gentle airflow

Orchids love moving air. A slow ceiling fan mimics their native canopy.

20–30°C

Comfortable for you means comfortable for your orchid. Avoid AC vents.
