A couple of years ago, Ma bought me an orchid for my birthday, I’ve managed to keep it alive so far but this summer I’ve been rubbish at watering my house plants and the orchid needed repotting. I saw a thing about growing them in water and thought I would try it.
So I took the orchid out of it’s pot and cleaned off the roots, I had a handy glass jar and filled it about a third of the way up and put the orchid in, I also added a drop or two of orchid feed. I change the water every week and so far, so good and the leaves aren’t wrinkly anymore because I forgot to water it. I suppose the real test will be if it flowers again, we’ll see. It is already growing a new leaf, so it’s going well.
It makes no sense why this should feel easier to do than just watering it once a week, but I can’t control the way my brain works!
