Phalaenopsis Orchid Care
Without a doubt the most popular orchid is the Phalaenopsis orchid, otherwise known as the moth orchid. They are very common because they are relatively easy to look after relative to many of the other orchid types (of which I’ll talk about in future posts).
The fundamentals are all the same:
Watering
Unlike most other orchids the moth orchid likes to be a little moist, but that doesn’t mean you can over water. It simply means you can be a little more generous.
Temperature
Simple, avoid extreme hot or cold or extreme jumps between temperature. A moderate room temperature is perfect for these plants.
Lighting
They like a good amount of light but AVOID too much direct sunlight. Behind curtains or blinds is the perfect sot for them.
