Moth orchid
Often sold for just a few dollars at supermarkets, moth orchid combines spectacular, long-lasting flowers (which resemble butterflies or moths) with an easy-care regimen. In fact, it’s one of the easiest orchids to grow in your home. Enjoy this beauty in brightly lit rooms throughout the house; you’ll especially appreciate its long-lasting blossoms during the dreary months of winter. And don’t shy away from giving it as a gift. This orchid is so simple to take care of that even houseplant newbies will succeed.
Moth orchid flowers come in a variety of colors, including white, purple, pink, salmon, or yellow, and interesting speckled or blotched patterns. You may want to group several potted orchids in the same display or include other tropical houseplants to add intrigue. Here are two good options: Earth star (Cryptanthus spp.), for example, is a type of bromeliad that is prized for its colorful foliage. Or soften the base of an orchid with rosary vine (Ceropegia woodii). Also called string of hearts, rosary vine is a succulent with heart-shape leaves veined in silver.
Like many tropical plants, moth orchid thrives in humid environments. Boost the humidity around your orchid by setting it on a tray of pebbles. Partially fill the tray with water, making sure the orchid is sitting well above the water line. The water will evaporate gradually, humidifying the air surrounding the plant. You can also boost humidity by grouping an orchid with other houseplants.
Feed your plant using a fertilizer made especially for orchids a couple of times in spring to encourage bloom (follow the manufacturer's directions). Hold off on the plant food and water less in fall and winter when the plants usually rest. Moth orchids typically bloom once a year in late winter or early spring. After the blossoms fade, cut off the flower spike at the base of the plant and continue to water and care for the orchid as usual. In all likelihood it will bloom again the following year. [Source]
