Absolutely! I found my love for orchids by accident, without realizing what I signed up for lol I was actually surprised at how resilient they were in spite of my mistakes. I’d often get multiple blooms a year though!

My general rules of thumb that kept my 2 grocery store orchids going for almost 3y was to keep watering low (I did ~1-2 tablespoons once a week), prune stalks after the flowers die (don’t rush this since can die before the rest grow in), and use cloth/canvas pots that can breathe.
