FAQ About Indoor Plant Native Habitats

In what environment do orchids naturally thrive?
Orchids are found in a variety of habitats, but most indoor varieties like Phalaenopsis are native to tropical and subtropical regions. They often grow as epiphytes on trees, benefiting from dappled sunlight and high humidity. To recreate this environment indoors, place orchids in indirect light, maintain humidity around 50-70%, and water them sparingly to avoid root rot.
