Orchid Care Guides
Growing beautiful orchids in Sydney's climate comes with its own rhythm — warm, humid summers, cooler winters, and everything in between. This page will be your go-to resource for expert orchid care tips from the Eastwood and District Orchid Circle, covering different genera care needs including watering, light, and repotting advice suited to Sydney's climate. Whether you're nurturing your first orchid or expanding a well-loved collection, our aim is to make this guide genuinely useful for growers at every stage.
Orchids vary widely in their needs depending on genus — what suits a Cymbidium won't suit a Phalaenopsis. We're building out individual care guides for the genera most commonly grown by our members in Sydney's climate.
Our Grower's Group meets at every monthly meeting for hands-on help, see details below.
