How to make an orchid bloom again?
Have you managed to restart your orchid, but it is still without flowers? How to proceed to make it bloom again? First, perform a pruning by cutting the stems to the nearest button. This cut will encourage the production of another flower stem in the following months. Then proceed to water the orchid properly avoiding excess water without letting the plant sit in the water. Next, place the plant in a warm, bright place, but away from direct light. The ideal location would be near a window facing east or west. The orchid also appreciates humidity and you can place it on a tray of wet pebbles.
