My contribution to the challenge of crazy color is a beautiful orchid. Raising orchids is not easy. I have had a long problem when and how much to water an orchid.Orchids are best watered from above. Pour them so as to well soak the entire substrate.Only water for watering, but preferably do not water the plant itself. Orchids that are planted on pieces of branches or bark are immersed together with this bark from the root systems into a water-filled bucket. We also water the orchids that we have planted in hanging baskets.Recommendation: All you have to do with water and orchids, that is all watering, fertilizing and spraying, always in the morning. Exceptionally, any additional spraying can only be done in the summer at noon if the sun does not shine on our orchids. This gives the plant plenty of time to dry before cooling down again in the evening or reducing its overnight heating in winter. This prevents harmful cooling in the root area, which is a shock to the orchid and, of course, the development of rot.

When you water your orchids, they reply back by singing “Maribor!” I hope they win today.
Hahaha …. unfortunately Maribor failed
Very helpful advice, it explains why some orchids thrive in the branches of trees.
I wonder how it would grow in my trees ?
Have a lot of trouble growing orchids but I will use your tips in future.
Try it, you may succeed. Sometimes it works for me, sometimes it doesn’t.
Have never been able to grow one of the beauties!
I also have a lot of problems growing orchids.
they’re supposedly one of the hardest plants to grow
I agree. Growing orchids is really not easy
if you don’t live in a tropical climate, you need a greenhouse
I don’t live in a tropical climate, so my orchids do not thrive best
Beautiful flowers, thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much, I’m glad you like it

I have killed more orchids than i can remember. There was a time when they flourished in my patio garden. the evening sun that I get is the culprit.
Sorry for your orchids. Growing orchids is really not easy

So beautiful, and no I don’t have any. I have tried many times over the years, always failing in orchid keeping.
Raising orchids is really difficult. I don’t always succeed either.
Your orchids are beautiful.
Thank you so much, Branka
such a gentle flower, I struggle with all flowers, but this one is awesome!
I agree. Orchids are also the most beautiful to me.
I have an orchid, today my choice is the same. They are very capricious to grow.
All orchids are beautiful and growing orchids is really difficult
Although they are seen on trees in forests supposedly not requiring any attention it is not so. I have not succeeded in gorowign.
