As the world’s largest and most diverse plant family, orchids provide a great way to personalize your gift choice. There’s an orchid that’s right for just about everyone.<\/p>\n

For an under-waterer, try a Cattleya<\/a>, Dendrobium<\/a>, Epidendrum<\/a>, or Oncidium<\/a>. These like to dry out well between waterings.<\/p>\n
