5. Time to Repot Your Orchid

Once the bloom is over, it’s time to consider the long-term care of your orchid and repot it. Always use pots with good drainage to let excess water escape. You also want to find a fast-draining growing media that’s specially designed for orchids. A basic orchid mix consists of fir bark, perlite, and sphagnum moss. In general, you want to repot your orchid every other year.
