Tips:
Orchids are known for their exquisite flowers. Orchids are the largest family among the flowering plants in the world with more than 30,000 species identified. Orchids are distributed in most of the countries and are especially prolific in the tropical regions, where the majority of the orchid species grow on the trunks and branches of trees. In the temperate regions such as Southern Australia, most of the orchids grow in the ground.
If the flowers have all died then when should you prune your orchids or cut the stalk back and how far? This is part of the basic care of orchids. Once the stalk of the orchid turns yellow or brown, it is obvious that no blossoms or plants will be produced. Then you can prune your orchids to within an inch from where the blossom stalk originated on the plant. You can also prune orchids when they are green if you don't mind losing potential blossoms. Another option to prune an orchid is to just remove the end of the blossom stalk to shorten the stalk, but retain an enough part so that it may bloom again. If this is done, cut it back to about 1/4 inch above a node which is indicated by a small leaf-like bract clinging to the stalk.
Orchids generally grow slow as compared to houseplants. Most of the orchids are required to be repotted about once every two years. In order to pot an orchid, the pot is filled with about two-thirds orchid potting medium and then the plant is set in the pot with its roots spread out properly. The growing tip of the orchid is either centered (monopodials) or placed two fingers away from the pot rim (sympodial). Then the additional media is packed very tightly around the orchid plant to hold it in place. You should be able to turn the pot upside down carefully without the orchid or medium falling out. More and more practice of growing orchids will insure successful repotting.
Vanda’s orchids are those fascinating orchids that may be grown with relative ease. Vanda orchids are monopodial. The growth of vandal orchids arises from the crown of the plant. Flowers of vandal orchids are available in superbly rich colors also including blue, red, orange and yellow. The flower spikes of vandal are the one which usually carry 8 to 10 blooms, which arises from the base of the leaves and last for several weeks.
