Dotted Phalaenopsis

Choose a location with plenty of bright, indirect light; a south- or east-facing window is ideal

Use an appropriate orchid growing medium, not potting soil, for the plant

Water around once a week and allow the growing medium to dry out between waterings

Feed a moth orchid with an orchid-specific fertilizer or a balanced fertilizer formula such as 20-20-20 at half strength. Administer fertilizer when the plant is actively growing.
