Mrs WD has multiple orchids growing all the the time.
I'll ask her the secret.
OK
nighttime temps no less than 45 f
bright, but diffused sunlight
humid air
roots would rather be under watered than over watered
she waters them buy dropping an ice cube in the pot every 4 days
They need a very light growing medium, you can buy soil just for orchids
biggest problem is root rot, from the roots being too wet.
Expect them to bloom about twice a year blossoms will last months.
cut the stem off when the bloom is done
