My Moth Orchid.....An Update

      On September 9, 2009 I posted an article here in my blog regarding the moth orchid we purchased at Trader Joes. It has been almost 8 months since we got that orchid and I was not really very optimistic that this plant will going to survive under my care. I did not follow some of the care instruction especially giving the orchid its food twice a month. Instead, I use different strategy by watering and feeding my orchid using the water I used in rinsing the rice alone.  I've learned it way back home in my home country. Since orchid foods are not commonly used in the country where I came from and I haven't known anybody using it, a lot of Filipinos have been using an alternative to something they can't afford to buy. 

     Since my moth orchid is bearing many flowers, this prove that the alternative I am using right now really works.  Thanks to my friend, Evelyn Meinking for reminding me about what we used to do way back home.
