How to care for an orchid plant?

the care instructions say to add humidity by placing the pot in a dish with pebbles and water but dont let the plant sit in the water cause the roots will rot. so should i only leave the pot in the dish for a little while and then take it out?

The pebbles should keep the planter with the orchid ABOVE the water line. (or don't water higher than the pebbles)



Also, a spray bottle mister is good.



Humidity is SO important for these plants!
Reply:Put a pan of water under the plant just make sure that the plants roots aren't sitting in the water.
