I have an orchid bought for me for my birthday on 5th February. I
have followed, strictly, the instructions. It is still in flower.
How do I keep it from hereon in?

Judith, what sort of Orchid is it? :-)


Bob, no idea as the little plastic card has disappeared, I will post a
pic later for identification.

Phalanopsis (moth Orchid) perhaps? Thick leathery tongue like leaves and a
flower spike with a number of flowers.
