Hello,
I don't know where to post this. I recently started growing orchids. I purchased two plants last year and when we moved into our current house the previous owner left me some of his orchids as he had too many to move to his new house. I did lose three last winter in the greenhouse. We finally closed it up and I installed a heater to keep it from getting below 50 degrees.
My question is one of the orchids has two long flower stems. One is over three feet long and the other is about two feet give or take. When do the flowers bloom? They sprouted out for over several weeks ago. Should I go ahead and stake the stems before the flowers come out or wait until it starts blooming? I brought it in the house to keep it safe from the cold weather. I live in Columbus Georgia.
Thank you,
Deborah
