A question about the ORCHID flower and more specifically touching them..?

I kissed an orchid at work, dont ask me why, I just did. The owner told me that the orchid would die now as they are not meant to be touched.





Does anyone know if this is true? or is it safe to touch orchids without the risk of the plant dying?

A question about the ORCHID flower and more specifically touching them..?
He seems to be a little overly sensitive about his orchid plant. I have one in bloom right now and I've touched the flowers many times. Nothing has happend to it, the plant is still alive, the flowers still look as good as new... in fact, the plant has been blooming since before Christmas. And I ask, how are you supposed to replant the orchid without touching it? How are you supposed to clean the leaves off without touching it? White gloves? I think not. So I say HOGWASH!! May I suggest that you purchase your own orchid and kiss it as much as you please and let old Mr. Crankypants look but not touch his own plant.
Reply:Not true. I often touch the flowers and leaves on my orchids and they are still alive and beautiful.
Reply:yes by touching or kissing the flowers the oils and moisture will cause the flowers to not last longer than normal. the plant should not die just the flowers.
Reply:Oh, you bastard, you killed the flower! YOUR MURDER!
Reply:baloney. malarky. and bunk. The owner is misinformed.
