\"orchid-show\"<\/a>When you visit The Orchid Show<\/em><\/a> you might be tempted to buy an orchid at Shop in the Garden<\/a> to take home with you. Go for it! Orchids aren’t nearly as fussy to keep as houseplants as you might think they are.<\/p>\n

Orchids have gotten a reputation for being divas, but choose the right one for your home environment (don’t worry, our orchid experts work at the Shop, too!) and you’ll have a beautiful plant that can last for years with new blooms every year.<\/p>\n

We’re committed to helping you keep your orchids healthy and happy.<\/p>\n

Sonia Uyterhoeven, the NYBG’s Gardener for Public Education, writes weekly columns<\/a> on orchid care throughout The Orchid Show<\/em>. At the show, Sonia is on hand offering orchid care demonstrations<\/a> on weekends at 2 and 3 p.m. And just in case you can’t visit us, now she has made this wonderful video highlighting how to re-pot your orchids at home.<\/p>\n
