Orchid Rescue -Update. This orchid was stuck in this combo pot and now has a second chance. Here are some tips on how you can perform your own rescue. 🪨Use a mix that has bark and perlite to provide adequate drainage. Add some Sphagnum moss to give you a little water holding capacity. 🪴Remove them from the planter, clean the roots and center it in a pot that’s slightly larger than the root ball. 💦 Water your orchid by soaking it in a bowl when the sphagnum moss dries out. 🪴 💚=😊 | MonstroFa

I could never keep orchids alive until I tried this! ⬇️ I love to rescue orchids from big box stores because most times they don’t have any flowers left so you never know what color they’ll be! Water culture orchids is when you remove all the previous medium (usually moss or bark) and grow them in a dish or jar with a small amount of water touching only the tip of the roots. The goal is to have the water be used up/evaporate within a week or so and then you let it sit dry for a few days to mimic

Phalaenopsis or Moth Orchid rescue to repot. They are actually rather tough orchids but it is not ideal to repot them when in bloom. These two I rescued from a nursery for R20 just on $1 each so could not resist. Not that I need more Phal's I have 11 of them not counting the mini phals. If you have any questions please pop them through. I also have a FB group, The Naked Orchid where I have teamed up with a group of experts to help you with your questions and issues.#orchidmom #orchids #orchidcar
