do orchids go through blooming stages in Hawaii?
we bought an orchid. we live in hawaii and have an black and gold shooting star orchid (or something like that). when we bought it, it had a bunch of yellow five spike stars. they turned orange then all fell off and now it has now flowers at all.
we had originally potted it in soil. we just re-potted it in rocks and bark like a site said.
did it die because we had it in soil or will it re-bloom?
any orchid info would be hugely appreciated 
after Orchids Stop Blooming they will bloom again eventually depending on the type.
first start by cutting off the dead stem where it had bloomed
water it once a week. when watering make sure you let all the water drain through completely before putting it back in the pot it was in. if it sets in standing water it will die. If you buy an orchid fertilizer it will help it grow faster and stronger. add this to the water (remember it takes a lot of energy to bloom)
now why your orchid is waiting to grow and bloom it like to be in wet warm places the best place is the bathroom in a window. every time someone showers it will get some humidity. if you donut have a window in the bathroom maybe you have one above your kitchen sink where they will also get some humidity and some light when your washing dishes and such. if not buy a mister and mist it everyday. hope this is helpful to you
