Culture Guides

Need to figure out how to care for your plants from Dr. Bill's Orchids? Take a look at the basic genus-specific care guides I have written with the beginner hobbyist in mind! Looking for a guide, but it isn't listed? Send me an email and I can work on writing one for you!

All Dr. Bill Orchid plant tags have a code at the end- "###PHAL", "####PAPH", etc. These codes help you determine what culture guide to use.

Anything ending with "-ORC" is something that doesn't fit into the other categories below and usually has specialized requirements. Please contact us for advice.
