Hi all, In today’s video I’m going to walk you through how I care for my Phalaenopsis Bellina. I’ll be giving a 1 Year update, from when I received her last year, when I repotted her and how she’s doing now. This orchid is amazing and has a wonderful fragrance! I can best describe it as a lemony rose. It’s lovely.
