A cymbidium orchid blooms.

These easy-to-care-for orchids produce exotic and flamboyant displays of long-lasting blooms. 

My orchids spend the summer and autumn out in the garden. (They need cool temperatures and good light to encourage blooms).  I then bring them indoors to an unheated greenhouse where they will produce their spectacular blooms. 

Once a week soak the pots with water and a little orchid feed. 

Enjoy!
