Orchid

InfoFew plants lend as elegant an air as an orchid. Luckily, you can add one to your home without posing a threat to your pooch. With proper care, orchids can last up to four months. They do best in partial light. Water once a week during the winter, and twice a week in hotter months.

Care instructionsThis breed of orchid native to Asia naturally does best in indirectly bright, warm, humid spots. It will typically bloom about once a year for up to three months, after which the flowers will die off, but the blooms will return next season. If you notice the leaves yellowing, you might be overwatering or over-sunning.
