I am unbeatable | Enjoy your orchid for longer, without the hassle
Monday 24 April 2023
Orchids come in many different colours, sizes and shapes – they’re truly a plant with many faces – but the main reason for their lasting popularity is their exclusive allure. That allure often leads customers to think orchids are hard to care for, but the opposite is true: they’re actually part of the ‘easy care’ category that customers are flocking to in ever greater numbers. With a little extra care and a few tips, this stunning tropical plant can be enjoyed for many years to come.
If you want an orchid to last, there are three main factors to consider: watering the plant, the spot where your customer puts their orchid, and bringing the orchid back into bloom. Get these aspects right, and your customers will get to enjoy their orchid without any hassle for years to come!
Watering an orchid
There are a few different ways to correctly water an orchid. This video by Orchidee Nederland shows the three ways in which your customers can make sure their orchid gets the water it needs. Orchids don’t like to be kept too wet, so they need to be watered in one of these three ways to keep them going for longer at home
The spot where your customer puts their orchid
Orchids prefer temperatures between a minimum of 15°C and a maximum of 25°C. They also like to be placed in a humid environment. That makes the bathroom the perfect spot to keep an orchid flowering the longest. But make no mistake: some varieties of orchid can just as easily be used as an outdoor plant. Cymbidium produces stunning flowers in spring, including on a balcony or in a back garden. That way, your customers get to enjoy their orchids both indoors and outdoors!
Bringing an orchid back into bloom
After months of floral splendour, an orchid will stop flowering. The plant will shed its stunning flowers, and it will look a little barren. Even so, with a little extra care, your customers can bring their orchids back into bloom time and time again. In fact, getting to enjoy this tropical plant for many years to come is exactly what makes orchids an unbeatable choice! Orchidee Nederland provides all the information your customers need on how to bring every type of orchid back into bloom.
