1. Growth habitsFirst of all, let me introduce to you the growth habits of flame orchid. This is very important for breeding. Please study it carefully. Flame orchid is a plant that loves sunlight, but it can also withstand severe cold. It does not have high requirements for soil. Well-drained, loose and fertile sandy loam is most suitable for its growth. During its growing period, there must be sufficient water to meet its growth needs. Flame orchids usually grow near ditches or on rocks, and bloom in spring and summer. 2. Breeding points1. Planting: Flame orchid is a creeping plant with strong climbing ability. Before planting, the soil must be fully plowed and sufficient base fertilizer should be applied. When planting, pay attention to the depth of 5 cm so that the bulbs can bloom in June of the year of planting, but smaller ones will not bloom until the second year. 2. Temperature: The most suitable temperature for the growth of flame orchid is between 18 and 35 degrees. It needs to be kept indoors in winter. Generally, if the temperature is suitable, flame orchid does not have a dormant period. 3. Light: Flame Flower prefers sunlight and requires relatively strong light, but if it grows epiphytically on a tree, it must avoid strong sunlight exposure, otherwise its leaves will turn yellow! 4. Water: Flame orchid needs a lot of water to grow. The soil should be kept moist during normal maintenance. In addition, water should be sprayed on its leaves and the surrounding air frequently. The relative humidity of the air needs to be kept between 70% and 80%. 5. Fertilizer: Flame orchid needs to be fertilized once every half a month during its growing period. When it is approaching its flowering period, also pay attention to adding phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. 6. Disease and pest control: Its main disease is mosaic, but it is generally not too serious. The main manifestation is the appearance of spots and streaks on the leaves. Tender leaves may necrotize. It is necessary to discover it in time during routine maintenance and burn the affected plants in time, otherwise it may be transmitted to each other and aggravate the disease! |
