Orchids can automatically light up a room with their stunning flowers and fragrant scents. However, they can take a lot of maintenance depending on the strain you buy. Watering, temperature, humidity, transplanting, and pruning are just a few of the things to think about when caring for an orchid.
Some plants need a period of cooler temperatures to thrive.
With the UK weather getting colder, some orchid owners may be concerned about how their orchids will fare.
Many orchids can tolerate temperatures as low as -1 ° C.
However, orchids can be damaged if they are exposed to frequent frost.
"Lower humidity can be a problem for orchids.
"It can drop leaves, it can turn brown.
"So if you find that your house has too little humidity and you cannot increase the humidity, you can place the plant on a gravel bowl and add water.
"The water will increase the local humidity near the orchid leaves, but it won't damage the roots, which is the most important thing."
