The L.A. Orchider

Nowadays there are many different species of orchids for one to choose from. There are Phalaenopsis, Cymbidiums, Oncidiums, Cattalayas, Dendrobiums, and many other exotic orchids. Many of them are so hard to choose from but one of the deciding factors other than the way the orchid looks is how long the orchid lasts. For some reason the Phalaenopsis last a very long time and in many cases longer than other orchids. I have had Phalaenopsis orchids last for three to four months. It seems to be the combination of careful watering and some morning sun that creates a long lasting environment for Phalaenopsis to thrive. All we can say is that we are very glad there are so many orchids to choose from and that many, including Phalaenopsis, last so long to enjoy!
