How to prune Phalaenopsis

1. Flower-promoting pruning

When the flowers of the Phalaenopsis orchid fade, proper pruning can help it bloom again. This pruning method first requires observing the plant, and then cutting off all the thin and dry branches on the plant. Afterwards, the branches that may bear fruit should be cut off, because bearing fruit will consume a lot of nutrients and seriously affect the plant's ability to bloom again.

After pruning, you need to cut each flower branch from the place where it starts to bloom or from the place where it starts to branch, leaving only the main flower stems. In addition, you need to pay attention to observation. If some branches have flower buds, not only should they not be cut, but they must also be carefully maintained, because these flower buds are likely to bloom.

After such pruning, if carefully cared for, the plant may bloom again after a few months.

After pruning, it needs careful care so that it will bloom more beautiful flowers next year.
