| Have bought several phanopsis (sp)orchids from your store, but after blooming all leaves dropped off. Other species did not, is this normal?? |
| Robert, That is not normal. There is some loss of older leaves from time to time but I suspect your plants were either reacting to a dramatic change in light intensity or perhaps to a watering extreme such as soggy wet or very dry for a period of time. Provide them a very dilute solution of a soluble plant food such as Miracle Gro (the low "constant feed" label rate) and put them in a very bright area but out of direct sunlight. They should be fine in time. Thanks for the question. Please stop in again soon! |
