I love gifting my green-thumbed friends a plant or two to celebrate any new chapter in their lives. And recently, my favorite potted present has been orchids. A little flowering, a little foliage — it's pretty perfect.
Not to mention, they make for elegant houseplants. That is, if you've got your orchid care routine down and you're picking the right types of orchids to grow indoors. And the latter is critical, for by picking the wrong variety, you're unintentionally setting yourself up for a failing plant from the outset.
