Where to place the orchid at home for good flowering
But for a good flowering and growth of an orchid it is essential to know where to place it at home, since you will never be able to get it to flower in a space where it does not receive a good number of hours of light. There are species such as Phalaenopsis that require less light to flower and others such as Cymbidium or Dendrobium that require many hours of light a day . It is often important to change location by trying a new place with more light or dim lighting. For orchids , the ideal place is undoubtedly a windowsill , quietly exposed to the sun’s rays.

However, there is one decisive factor for obtaining healthy and lush flowers: patience . The orchid is one of the most beautiful flowers in the plant world, but it is also one of the most capricious. So you have to devote a lot of time to it and take good care of it.
