Last Updated: 2024/11/22, It is also known as "tiger tail orchid" and "thousand-year-old orchid". It is a kind of herb of Liliaceae. When you see this name, you may wonder how it got its name. But if you look at the picture of it, you will understand. Yes, it is precisely because its leaves have many irregular horizontal markings on both sides, very much like tiger tail or tiger skin, so they have these names. Water is very important in the maintenance of plants. Here are some specific methods.

1. The demand for water

First of all, we should look at its origin in order to better understand its habits and characteristics. It originated in Africa, that is, near the tropics, so we can infer that it has a large demand for water, and it likes to grow up in a relatively humid environment.

2. Principles to be followed

We must follow some general principles when watering. First, the amount of watering needs to be appropriate, preferring to dry a little rather than watering too much. Second, the amount and frequency of watering should be adjusted according to the weather. With the decrease of temperature, watering should be reduced accordingly.

3. Specific methods

The main results are as follows: (1) first of all, in spring and summer, because the growth rate is relatively fast, in order to meet the exuberant demand of plants, we irrigate more water and times. Especially in the hot summer season, it is necessary to ensure that the basin soil is in a slightly moist state.

(2) at the end of autumn and even in winter, the amount of water and frequency should be gradually reduced. In the cold winter, there is no need to water directly.

4. Points for attention

(1) We say that this plant likes to be moist, but not the wetter the better, but to an appropriate extent.

(2) in order to avoid the basin soil being too wet caused by too much watering, we can choose the soil with good drainage performance to discharge the excess water in time.

(3) in a very hot summer, we can irregularly sprinkle some water on the leaves or in the air to replenish the evaporated part.
