Why Are Store-Sold Phalaenopsis Often Killed?

Question

ForwardPlant Team · Accepted Answer

Cultivated *Phalaenopsis* often perish due to overwatering, a common mistake. They prefer well-draining media like bark, not dense soil. Improper light—too little or too much—stress them, as does low humidity. Rapid environmental changes from nursery to home also contribute to decline, making them susceptible to rot and disease.
