Flowerpot size: Tiger skin orchids can be planted in pots with a diameter of 16 to 30 cm. The root system of tiger skin orchid is not deep, but the selection of high-footed flowerpot is beneficial to the beauty of plant shape.

2. Preparation of basin soil

Tiger Pilan likes loose, medium-fertile, well-drained sandy soil, but the soil requirements are not strict, good drainage can be. The family can use the following formula: garden soil: rotten leaf soil: sand ratio is 5:2:3, peat soil: rotten leaf soil: sand soil: perlite ratio is 4RU 2vl 2VR 2.

3. Environmental requirements

Sunshine: Tiger Pilan likes the light, it is best to put the plant in a place where the sun can shine directly, if the conditions do not allow, you can also put it closer to the sun. Keeping it in the shade for a long time will cause the leaves of the plant to turn yellow.

4. Watering method

Tiger Pilan prefers moist soil and is more resistant to drought.

Spring is the growing season of new leaves, and there will be new buds in the root neck, which requires a little higher moisture and can keep the basin soil moist. After the leaves grow, it is better for the basin soil to be moist, that is, the topsoil is dry and watered.

When the temperature is low in winter, keep the basin soil dry and not dry, and watering in winter should stick to the basin and irrigate along the basin, so as not to cause rot in the human leaf cluster.

5. Fertilization method

Tiger Pilan does not have high requirements for fertilizer. After the new leaves grow in spring, it is necessary to apply rotten liquid fertilizer, or choose a diluted general fertilizer of 1000 times for 1 to 2 times, once every 10 to 15 days.

When fertilizing, we should choose a thin-nozzle spray pot to irrigate along the basin mouth, and do not pour liquid fertilizer into the leaf cluster, otherwise it will cause leaf rot and affect growth.
