Today, we are the fortunate beneficiaries of the work performed by talented botanists. Orchids are sold in a variety of shops, garden centers and greenhouses. Most orchids are not easy to grow and it is recommended that the buyer of any orchid should have some basic knowledge of horticulture. No need to be overly concerned though. If you can do that, then you can grow orchids successfully.
Lets take a closer look at how to do it.
The first step in buying an orchid is to think about the type of environment you can provide for its optimal health. If an east facing window is not an option be sure to shade the plants from direct afternoon sun with sheer curtains or blinds. The next step to consider is the amount of humidity in your house. The humidity levels of summer are sufficient and do not warrant any concern. But our long, dry winters are a major concern.
