Due to its elegant and beautiful appearance, the orchid inspires splendor, elegance, and antiquity at your home.
Forest orchids are on the trunks of trees and rocks in the form of epiphytes, ie they are not in the soil. We have seen the beginning of the plant’s fruiting, which may produce 2 to 3 leaves during the season. The orchid definitely deserves to be displayed in a special way in your living room that’s why putting orchid pots on a Greenhouse Decor plant stand makes it stands out at your home. In summer, when the plant produces leaves and roots and the plant’s energy is stored in the roots and leaves, Now it’s time to rest!
We are witnessing the vernalization or so-called spring of the flower in this season, and this is the time when our flower enters the reproductive phase and produces its first flower bud, and this process continues until the spring when the flower falls. There is no news. In nature, from mid-winter to mid-spring, there is an opportunity for pollination and seed production until the flowering is over and the same cycle must pass again !! Of course, in the meantime, something happened that I will offer to you later.
Requirements:
Light: Phalaenopsis is a flower that is very comfortable to keep in the apartment, contrary to the idea, you can place the orchid in any part of the room that you feel has light or near any window by using a plant shelf and this is not a problem because of any kind of lamps and threads. And the bedside lamps are on.
But consider that the more light there is to the extent that the leaves do not burn, the better for flowering. Be sure not to expose to direct sunlight. It was clear that the light is high if the shadow was not clear, then the light is low, but if it was between these two states, then the light is enough!
Humidity: As mentioned, this plant is native to the humid and sultry regions of Southeast Asia, so it needs moisture and must be placed under a tray full of water indirectly under the pot so that when the water evaporates, the air around the plant becomes sultry and your plant Imagine, for example, that this is Thailand, Pattaya.
The moisture of the phalanx
Temperature: The best temperature for this plant is between 16 and 26 degrees, which is the same as room temperature. Naturally, this heat requires more humid air, which is not possible at home. Extreme weakness and malnutrition. As it was said, this flower blooms in autumn or even during the year! But where does this flower in the room with constant temperature and light come from now on?! Staircase where the air is cooler, ie the temperature is between 12 and 16 degrees. The same stem as Goldtone!
New flower stalks
Soil: Note that these plants are not in the soil in nature, but this plant is so-called epiphytic or darzi, and on the trunks of trees and rocks, etc. Of course, they are not fungi and angels !! For this reason, their roots are adapted so that not in It should be water, neither on land nor in ordinary soil. Some producers say that orchid soil is different, as if they want to launch a rocket, but this is not the case when you cut the sponge into pieces, wood chips, moss, charcoal, perlite, Combine the bark of the tree, it can be orchid soil, so remember not to plant it in the garden soil. It was to say!

Changing the pot: First of all, friends should keep in mind that the root of this flower is also capable of photosynthesis and food production, even if it is small, so plant the plant in a light plastic pot so that light passes through it and the roots get some light, this issue can be solved easily by putting the plastic pots on a multi tiered plant stands. The roots like to express themselves out of the soil, but in the bed all the moss, the roots prefer to stay in the moss.
When you saw the roots come out of the soil and increase or you saw the wood chips, the bark of the trees turned brown and black and Or, in addition to the characteristic of the roots, you are also tied at the time of changing the pot, note that the time of changing the pot is when the plant is not in the flowering period !!
Phalaenopsis
Nutrition: Our recommendation is to give your plant green growth fertilizer available in our store, and for the first time in my article, I do not recommend vermicompost, especially once every 3 weeks during flowering, and the same every 3 weeks at the time of leafing. Pheromone goes ahead. This will cause your plant to blister and take root and give a good flower at the end of summer.
