Finding light for Rojo Congo in your home
a window
Rojo Congo may have difficulty thriving, and will drop leaves 🍃, without ample sunlight.
Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.
Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Rojo Congo in your home 🏡.
How to fertilize Rojo Congo
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Rojo Congo after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I’m so excited to introduce you to Helos! Helos is the second Orchid I purchased after experiencing the thrilling rebirth of my first Orchid Sol. Not long after I brought Helos home, it dropped its flowers. I kept watering Helos and placed it next to Sol on my window sill and this morning I noticed these 3 little buds! I know little about Orchids, so I’m operating as a complete newbie & I am so appreciative of the community here who has offered me encouragement. Especially @MotherOfOrchids #OrchidLovers #HappyPlants #NewGrowth

What are these dots? I just found these little dots or lumps growing on my orchid’s new stem. They look like water droplets but felt a bit sticky when I went to touch. What are these, and do I need to get rid of them??

Why are my orchid flowers wilting 🙁 I keep her in a relatively light space and let the roots completely dry out before watering in small amounts. I recently reported it and not sure if it will make it 😞 the leaves look health and I had to cut a lot of yellowing roots when reporting to prevent rot spreading

Help Hi! I think my orchid needs repotted because I haven’t repotted it since I got it and now the roots are starting to grow outside the pot and google said that’s when I should repot. Should I repot her now or wait? And when I do repot her is miracle gro orchid potting mix good? All the reviews say it’s good and their orchids like it. Last thing I want to know is can I use a colander as a pot? Probably not but I just felt like I should ask just in case. Someone help me please because I’m new to flowers and idk what I’m doing. Also it came with a stick in it so should I leave it or take it out?
