How does one repot an orchid?
Can a novice do it, or can a customer ask a floral shop to do the job?
I've had an orchid (grocery store variety) for about 10 years. It has grown quite a few new leaves, and bloomed, over that time. @@@ Now the leaves are so heavy they are slowly pulling the roots out of the flower pot. Also I recently moved, and that seemed to hasten the exodus. Right now I keep the orchid propped on something, but it seems I should consider repotting. ### It has bloomed well every year, except the first year after moving here. This spring it has produced one pretty white flower, and has a bud for another one. It has not produced the many trailing tendrils it did every year in its former abode. Here, the orchid gets more natural sunlight (through a lace curtain). In the previous house, it got only indirect outdoor light, but was under a regular lamp that was lit many hours a day. @@@ Any tips will be appreciated. Thanks! |
