Which Kind Of Orchid Should You Buy?
There are thousands of different species of orchids and no 2 are completely the same. There are of course the most popular types of orchid such as the Moth orchid but this is by no means the only orchid you can purchase. When asking yourself what type of orchid you should buy you need to consider the following factors:
Do You Have Alot Of Light?
Some orchids like lots of light and some need only modest amount. If you have a lot of light in your home consider purchasing a Dendrobium, Cattleya, or Vanda Orchid.
Do You Forget To Water?
Hey, I LOVE my orchids more than almost anything and every now and then I forget to water them too. If you are a little forgetful you will want an orchid that doesn’t need to be watered so often. For that consider a Dendrobium Orchid.
Do You Have A High Level of Light and High Humidity?
All orchids require light and humidity, they are essential ingredients to their survival. If you have a high light level and a high humidity level (lots of moisture in the air) it is best to buy a Vanda orchid.
Lots of Shade?
The classic Phalaenopsis orchid doesn’t need a lot of light and is the perfect orchid for indoors.
