Three orchid species are particularly popular on the market, such as the famous moth orchid or Phalaenopsis. They thrive indoors, at a temperature of around twenty degrees, in bright, humid locations, and never in direct sunlight.
A healthy orchid blooms twice a year, but it needs to be fertilized year-round. As for watering, they should only be watered when they are completely dry. Since they are delicate plants that thrive in loose soil, you should be careful never to overwater.
Reviving an orchid
To revive an orchid , make it grow vigorously and with healthy and robust roots, you can follow a method used by Asians. To begin, simply take an orchid plant and clean the roots from the soil. Then, using a pair of scissors, you must cut all the roots . At this point, after removing each root with your hands, you must remove the excess leaves, so as to leave only a central stem intact.
After thoroughly washing the orchid and drying the remaining leaves with cotton, take a little garlic and press it in a mortar . The crushed garlic should then be placed at the bottom of a glass container. Water should be added to the garlic, which should then be filtered into another container. The orchid should then be placed in a jar, into which about a third should be poured with garlic juice.
After leaving the small orchid in the garlic juice for about twenty minutes, let the plant dry in an empty glass. In the meantime, take a small plastic bottle and cut off the cap to create a plastic cup. Then, place the top of the bottle or neck on the bottom of the resulting glass.
The root of the small orchid must then be inserted inside the neck of the bottle. After that, you must add a little water so as not to wet the roots. The water at the bottom will evaporate over the hours and will maintain the right humidity. Every two days, it is necessary to spray the orchid plant inside the bottle with a little water, and within a month it will quickly develop new roots and new healthy and robust leaves.
