Watering

The roots do the drinking, and the moss holds water against them. When the moss feels dry or the roots look silvery, pour a small measured amount of room-temperature water over the moss. That's usually about once a week, and less in winter. If you water too much, hold the pot firmly over a sink and let the excess drain out the top of the vessel.

Why orchids are different

In nature, orchids cling to tree branches with their roots in open air, not buried in soil. Each root has a spongy silver coat that soaks up rain in seconds and turns green when full. Between showers the roots dry in the breeze. A root that stays wet can't get air and will rot, which is why an orchid wants less water than an ordinary houseplant.
