The more you leave them alone the better they are, but they don't like cold feet lost all of mine but one 2 winters a go and were in a green house. When they were in bloom I would bring them in the house and when they finished put them back out

Ouch, please NO on icecube advice. Not the thing to do. Unless you want to buy new plants that is! I grow thousands of orchids in 2 greenhouses. Just say no to ice. LOL.

The tag on mine says thats how to water 4/5 icecubes about every 7/10 days !
I have had mine over ayear and it hasnt re-bloomed, I am about ready to toss it.

The tag is made by a business that would love to see you repurchase plants if you get my meaning.
