Answered

I have a MONSTER oricid, Ive had it for five years. I'm just wondering what people use for types of pots, food, soil ( I've been using moss and it has worked wonders!) staying in bloom for over a year.

Thanks

Orchids are planted in a orchid medium in special pots made for them.Fertilizer is also specified for orchids.

The one thing that I have found to be really valuable for orchids is a dilute solution of orchids food in a spray bottle that I spritz on the surface roots every couple of days. It sounds like your lovely "monster" is doing well, so keep it up!
