The poster series highlighted here is for Targetâs Spring campaign. I picked a collection of icons that read Spring at a glance, and I illustrated them using only an Exacto knife and one piece of paper each. The simple illustration style is what makes them unique and interesting.
The first step with any store-bought orchid is to enjoy the bloom. Don't attempt to repot a flowering plant. After the bloom is done, go ahead and cut off the dead flower spike with sterile snippers and repot the plant. Orchids should be potted into specialized orchid pots in orchid mixture.
Repotting. Orchid plants like tight fits inside pots, but when their roots start growing up and over pot rims, it is time to repot them. Wait until your orchid stops flowering and all the blooms have fallen to remove the plant from its old pot and pot it into a slightly larger container.
