After the seeds are mature, they can be sown in late September or in spring, and the seedlings can emerge in about a month, with a seedling rate of more than 40%. Cuttings are generally carried out in spring or early summer and germinate 20-30 days after cutting; the stems with leaves should be dug and planted directly in spring and autumn every year.

2. Soil: sandy loam with good drainage is better.

Phoenix tail orchid is not strict to the soil, but the sandy loam with good drainage is better, and the barren and stony waste land can also adapt to a wide range of acidity and alkalinity, and can grow except saline-alkali soil.

If it does not blossom, it may be due to the temperature. If the temperature is too low, it will lead to the dormant period. If the dormant period is too long, it will not be able to accumulate enough nutrients. Naturally, it will be difficult to bloom, and the temperature can be raised.
