just got a new orchid and some of the flowers are starting to wither...where should i cut them? closer to the flower or closer to the stem?
How should i prune my orchid?
Wait until they're ready to be "pinched" off. Don't do any pruning to orchids until all the blossoms have died. then you can cut the stem back and it should produce a new shoot after a rest period.
Reply:It depends entirely upon the orchid plant. What kind do you have?
Try this website: http://www.orchids-plus-more.com/
There's all kinds of info there, it's pretty good.
Reply:You should just let the flowers fall off and the twig will dry up and that is the best time to prune it. http://orchidflowersonline.blogspot.com/ .More info listed on the care of Orchids. I hope you keep your beautiful Orchid alive!
