Here Goes Nothing

 

Suz had some great tips on reblooming her orchids.  My orchid had overgrown roots outside the pot  and has never rebloomed. So on Feb 2nd I trimmed it the best I could and am soaking the roots in water.  The roots were not tall enough to just soak the tips as Suz recommended.  I will change the water every week and maybe here goes nothing!

Dear Christine, with orchids you need patience (and sometimes you even have to "threaten" them 😉). I had one in the office that didn't bloom for years and I was about to throw it away – then it started to bloom! It's now with a dear colleague from back then and blooms (almost) every year.
All the best from Austria, Traude

Haha. Good luck. I received orchid for my birthday and am just enjoying the flowers. When they all drop off, I’ll discard it.
