Hello, not really gardening, more a house plant question!
I have an orchid that was given to me about 6 months ago in full bloom. The flowers did not last very long. I know you have to water them sparingly, allow the roots to drain, and feed occasionally, all of which I have been doing. But no more flowers as yet.
It was originally in a glass dish covered by moss but it seemed like the moisture was getting trapped so have left it just standing in its pot. Is that correct? Also should I cut off the dead (is it dead?) flower stem to encourage a new one to grow?
I really am clueless but would love it to flower again - any advice very gratefully received!
