Phalaenopsis Orchid Recovery In A Terrarium

In this video I transfer my old pot bound miniature Phalaenopsis orchid to a new terrarium to give it the space and humidity it needs to thrive. I have had this orchid for 8 years and it is now overdue a repot. In order to revive this orchid and also to create an interesting over the rock appearance I transfer the orchid to a small terrarium to provide a better growing environment. Phalaenopsis orchids are epiphytic plants which naturally grow on the surface of rocks or tree trunks and so this terrarium should allow it to grow in an environment which is closer to its natural habitat.
