Whether you're a seasoned orchid collector or just starting out with this fascinating family of plants, good care information is indispensable. At Orchids-shop.com, we understand that each species has its own needs. That's why from now on we will be adding comprehensive care instructions to more and more products - clear, practical and tailored to the specific plant.
No general tips, but species-specific information
Many websites only give general advice such as "do not put in full sun" or "water once a week". But a cool-growing Masdevallia requires very different conditions than a heat-loving Vanda or a compact Tolumnia. That's why you'll find clear instructions on each species:
- Light requirements: where best to put the plant?
- Temperature zones: cool, moderate or warm - we explain it clearly.
- Watering and humidity: including tips for using demineralized water.
- Substrate: which mixture suits your orchid's root structure?
- Fertilization: how often and with what?
- Flowering: when can you expect flowers and how do you stimulate repeat flowering?
Care tailored to your plant
Whether you order a rare species or a well-known hybrid, you no longer have to search for care tips on dozens of websites. With us, they simply come with the product - sometimes even with a downloadable PDF or printable summary.
Why we do this
Our customers value quality, but also good guidance. By taking this step, we want to help you have even more fun and success with your plants. Because nothing is more frustrating than a beautiful purchase that doesn't make it home because of a small care mistake.
