How do I water my orchid?
To water, run the pot under a tap for around 20 seconds allowing water to drain through the bottom before putting it back in the ceramic pot. Alternatively place an ice cube on the post once a week.

Reduce watering, water only when the roots are grey and no condensation on the pots, increase light position, keep out of direct light, keep out of draughts, hot or cold, don't put too close to heat sources or fruit bowls.
When flowering is over, cut off any dead (brown) parts of the flower stem. If new flowers don't appear within two months, try moving the plant to a cooler and brighter location to trigger the flowering response.
Healthy orchid leaves are a light green. If your orchids leaves appear damaged or yellow ensure they are not in direct sunlight or being over watered.
Ensure that your orchid is not in direct sunlight and it's away from any south facing windows. East or west facing windows are best for your orchid. Ensure your orchid isn't by a radiator as this will dry your orchid.
