Do Orchids Keep Flowering?
Author: Verity Webb
Recently I was asked on the phone by one of our beautiful customers, will her delightful Moth Orchid (Phalaenopsis Orchid) continue to flower, after the current lot of buds? Well, I’ll have to let you in on a little secret here...I didn’t actually know! Eek. But hey, we’re all on this journey together :)
So, I got to researching and here’s what I found...
• Yes, the plant will produce more flowers!
• If cared for correctly, these plants can produce flowers all year round
• If cutting flowers from the stems, make the cut just above one of the bracts on the stem and this will encourage the plant to re-bloom
• While the stem remains green, they should only be cut back once the flowers have turned brown
We hope this has been helpful. If anyone has anything to add, we’d love to hear your thoughts!
Much love, GTG xxx
