My orchid was beautiful, and I always took care of it ( I watered it when the soil got dry and made sure it had plenty of indirect light) and I still do. However, one day the flowers began to wilt and they fell off one by one and I treated it no different then I always had since the day my boyfriend presented it to me, but should I have given it more attention. When I came back from Christmas break, it was still very healthy...he took such good care of it. Although it was outside in the cold for a few secs when he brought it back to me and I noticed the wilting shortly afterward. What do I do? Does my poor little orchid need more nutrients and attention now that it has no flowers or should I check it into a nursery? Please help me, that flower brought me so much joy, I hate that it looks like a big green stick now.
How do I get my moon orchid to flower again?

Oh well. Actually orchids drop their pedals after several months and it may take several months for a new shoot to come up at which it will produce a new flower. Dont let the soil dry out and keep it moist but not wet and keep it out of direct light.
