Hello!
I just went to an orchid festival with my folks yesterday. They've been growing orchids for a number of years, and while we were at the festival bought me my first 3.

I have a
Max-teuifolia (coconut orchid)
Phalaenopsis Pacific
and
Ludisia discolor. (jewel orchid)

I was wondering if anyone knew any good websites for me to find some growing tips for these three flowers. I know the teuifolia is going to be harder to grow than the other two, but I had to try (smells like cocount cream pie)

Thanks guys!
Jess

You must never let it run out of water.
