This is my first post on this forum. I hope I am in the right place. My daughter gave me a beautiful (it was beautiful) white Phalaenopsis? Orchid last November. It is receiving indirect light during the day from a large East Facing Window and fluroscent light during the evening. I water it about once or twice a week. After the flowers died, it stayed green for 3 months. I was blissfully awaiting new flowers then I noticed one of the branches turning yellow at the top ...then all of the bottom leaves went yellow-- I pulled them the bottom leaves off. I am now watering it only once a week. I don't know what to do. Help!!! :confused:
