Orchids cannot grow in normal soil like other garden plants. In this video, I explain why orchids should never be planted in soil and how their epiphytic nature makes them different from regular plants.
Learn how orchid aerial roots absorb moisture and nutrients from air, why soil suffocates the roots, and the best potting media used for orchids. Understanding this basic concept will help beginners keep their orchids healthy and avoid common mistakes.
All visuals in this video are from my garden.

• Why orchids cannot grow in soil
• Epiphytic nature of orchids
• Role of aerial roots
• Difference between normal plants and orchids
• Why soil suffocates orchid roots
• Common orchid potting media
