1. Morphological characteristics1. Stem: The stem of orchid is a pseudobulb, which is mostly ovoid, elliptical and fusiform in shape. 2. Leaves: Leaves grow from the base of the pseudobulb, generally in a ribbon shape, but some are oblanceolate and narrowly elliptical. 3. Flower: The petals and sepals of orchids are not clearly distinguishable, and there are two circles in total, the inner and outer circles. The inner wheel has three pieces, the lower one is the lip, which is larger than the other two. The stamens, pistils and stigma are combined into the column, which is a major characteristic of orchids. 2. Maintenance methods1. Light: Orchids need special attention to their lighting. In addition to providing adequate shade during the high temperatures of spring and summer, half-sun exposure in autumn, and full-sun exposure in winter, you should also rotate the pot appropriately so that it can receive light from all sides. 2. Watering: Do not water orchids too much. It is best to keep the soil slightly dry, as long-term moisture is not conducive to its growth. Generally, water is poured from the side of the pot, and the time can be chosen in the early morning or evening. In the dry season, you can spray appropriately to ensure the leaves are moist. 3. Fertilization: It is better to fertilize orchids less rather than more. It is not advisable to choose too fertile soil as the base material for potting soil. Generally, in spring and autumn, fertilizer can be applied once every two to three weeks in the evening, and watered the next morning. 3. Picture appreciation |
