3 simple and effective tips to revive your orchids

Flowers bring more than just color to our homes; they offer therapeutic beauty and charm. Among them, the orchid stands out, not only for its delicate scent and vibrant hues but for the myriad of stories and symbols associated with it.

A Flower of History and Symbolism:

Orchids are among the top choices at florist shops, with their captivating scent and intricate bloom patterns. This magnificent flower symbolizes both beauty and strength. Tracing back to Ancient Greece, there was a belief that the gender of an unborn child could be influenced by the orchid tubers the parents consumed. This unique flower also holds a special place as a gift for the fourteenth wedding anniversary. With such rich history and symbolism, the orchid continues to thrive in popularity. But, its beauty comes with the challenge of ensuring its proper care.

Reviving and Caring for Your Orchids:
Nourish Them: Regular hydration is key. Refresh the water in their vase every couple of days and provide them with liquid fertilizers rich in phosphorus and potassium every fortnight. When they’re in bloom, reduce the watering and withhold the fertilizer to encourage the growth of new shoots.
