Been a long time since I've done an orchid video! I want to do a few videos that fuse the gap between houseplant lovers and orchid lovers. While orchids are often intimidating to grow, the coconut orchid, or maxillaria tenuifolia is a great option for beginners. The coconut orchid is an easy to grow houseplant that offers great color and texture for in the home and rewards in the spring time with fragrant red flowers. The coconut orchid is possibly one of the easiest to grow orchids, I would place it at least in the top 10. How to grow orchids often get complicated and can scare people away from giving them a try. What's great about the maxillaria tenuifolia is that it can be grown like a lot of common and easy to grow houseplants, but with bark or moss instead of potting soil. If you're growing aroids and have a bright, humid space, I highly suggest adding in some orchids as they will accompany your humidity loving aroids very well.
