orchid leaves fell off

July 14, 2010

orchid leaves fell off
The leaves of my orchid (Phalaenopsis) is falling of a leaf per day. What should I do?

If the leaves turn yellow, then you are an excess of water. If this is the case, may be too late to save the plant, but you can try to let the plant dry. These plants need to really dry between irrigation – you can tell if the water needs by the weight of the pot – heavy-bottomed pan, light and airy wet and dry pan. In nature, orchids Many live in tree trunks with their roots exposed. They get their water from the atmosphere of the jungle in this environment. It, therefore, the risk is completely alien to these plants. They love humidity around the plant, but not always in the boat. If you are lack of water, I think the leaves turn brown and dry before falling, so I suspect excess water is the culprit.

My orchid has lots of new leaves growing out of the flower stem 6 inches I need to divide?

The primary leaves are more thin and fine, but a new group of leaves with what appears to roots growing on top of a flower stalk to 6 inches high. Does this need to be divided, or is this normal for an orchid?

This is a new plant in training, nontraditional. I think it is called "Ki Ki". Once the flowers developed in the bar and you're ready to eliminate puppy cut "new" mother and place the pot with the mother plant, or a new pot. I'm not sure what the success rate, but is already showing some roots, should be pretty easy. It can take years to mature plant in bloom at a young age. It is recommend that were planted in the mother plant. It should also be a clone of the mother, in relation to the size of the flowers and colors. If you do not remove, there will be no damage to the mother plant. I think that eventually wither and die (the "ki"). I hope that helps good luck —
