The orchid is one of the most elegant and luxurious plants you can bring into your home.
It exudes calm, cleanliness, and aesthetics – and with a little patience, you can make it bloom again and again for years.
In this guide, you will discover how to properly care for an orchid , what to do when the blooms are over, how to water, prune, fertilize – and how much a quality orchid really costs 🌿
☀️ Light and watering conditions for orchids
🔆 Light:
The orchid loves strong, filtered light . Direct sunlight is not allowed, otherwise the leaves will burn.
📍 Recommended location: near an east or west window, with a transparent curtain.
💧 Irrigation according to the seasons:
-
Spring-Summer: Water once a week, when the roots are gray – a sign that water is needed.
-
Fall–Winter: Water every 10–14 days, depending on the dryness of the air.
🧪 It is important to water the orchid substrate (wood bark/sphagnum) directly and let the water drain completely.
Never leave water in a flowerpot!
🪴 Daily orchid care – cleaning, fertilizing, and potting
✔️ Cleaning leaves: Wipe gently once every two weeks with a damp cloth – the orchid likes to be clean and shiny 😄
🌿 Fertilization: Once every two weeks with a fertilizer specifically for orchids – a weak, diluted fertilizer.
🪴 Transfer to a new pot: Every two years or when the substrate breaks down - it is mandatory to transfer to a special orchid substrate with good ventilation for the roots.
✂️ Orchid pruning and propagation
✂️ After flowering is complete – cut the stem above the second or third leaf joint (depending on height), to allow for re-flowering.
If the stem has completely dried out, prune to the base.
🌱 Propagation: Not easy – only possible by separating a "kiki" (small shoot) that emerges from the flowering stem, and only when it develops its own roots.
