  • The major factor for the decline of the western prairie fringed orchid has been the conversion of native prairie to croplands. Fire suppression, overgrazing, and habitat fragmentation also have contributed majorly to the decline of the species.

  • Watering requirements for orchids are usually very specific. While the plants are just approaching dryness, always water very heavily from the top of the container, and always make sure to water all the way around. It would be the best to water in the morning so that the foliage has time to dry during the day after that apply water until it flows freely from all drainage holes.

  • The exotic Dendrobium orchid is grown in Hawaii under natural conditions. The orchid plant will thrive well in normal household conditions and no green house is necessary. Strong light (over 2,000 foot-candle) is recommended for artificially lighting Dendrobiums. Inadequate light levels result in spindly stems and thin leaves with few or no flowers. East or west windows in the summer and autumn and south windows in the winter and early spring will give plenty of light for the Dendrobiums to grow well.

  • Inorder to let the orchids grow well all material provide must be well aeration and drainage. Take for example pot, slabs of tree trunk, coconut shell, etc.
