Orchids are lovely plants that come in a variety of colors and shapes. While they can be used as hanging plants, it’s important to note that they require special care. Orchids prefer bright, indirect light and high humidity. If you’re not able to provide these conditions, your orchid is likely to struggle. Additionally, orchids need to be watered differently than other plants. They should be watered about once a week, but allowed to dry out completely between waterings. Over-watering an orchid can lead to root rot, so it’s important to be careful not to underwater or overwater them. With proper care, however, orchids can make beautiful hanging plants.
