General Care Guide Lighting - Phalaenopsis Orchids can tolerate anything from indirect light to lower light conditions, but is happiest somewhere in between. Just be weary of direct sun as this may cause the leaves to burn. Watering - Once it's roots look silver, bottom water in your sink or other container. Leave in the water for 20mins or so then remove & allow to drain before returning to any cover pot. Soil - Phalaenopsis orchids are only grown in either Orchid Bark or Tree Fern Fibre as they are naturally epiphytes! You can also make a 50/50 mix of the two for the best of both worlds! Fertiliser - We recommend feeding every time you water using a fertiliser, such as GT Orchid Focus, Orchid Pump 'n' Feed or Orchid Mist 'n' Feed to help your orchid to thrive!
