How to fertilize Miltonia Orchid
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 Miltonia Orchid after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

#Orchid Help I'm a new Orchid mom and want to be sure I am doing the right things. This arrived recently and I know not to put it in a different pot yet. I also bottom water all of my plants, so this will be the same. How do I care for it especially with roots out like they are? #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #GregGang
