What could be causing my orchid to be dropping its flowers?

Answer by  bluesky (50)

The reasons could be too much water, not enough water, too little sun, not enough sun.... The demise of most plants is too much water, so try cutting back watering. Try using ice cubes to control the amount of water used. Or, try soaking the plant in water for ten minutes a week. Remember to feel the soil, too.

It sounds like it is root bound if so just replant it where it has nmore room for the roots to spread out. You can go to any greenhouse and tell them the trouble and they will be able to help you as well they have alot of good information.
