If you buy back an orchid with a bud, it can bloom. The key is to be very careful in the process of cleaning, disinfecting, drying and potting after you buy it. Try not to let the bud be flooded. After putting on the basin, you should try your best to protect the bud from freezing in the sun. As for whether last year's flowers will bloom this year, it depends on your level. Generally speaking, growing grass is easier to blossom.

Family orchids are usually planted in pots, and the methods are as follows:

1. The basin soil generally chooses the mountain mud supplied by the market, especially the black mountain mud. If the self-made culture soil is used, it needs to be mixed with Gaza 1PUX 3 and mix well. The flowerpot chooses the mud pot, and the hole in the bottom of the pot is larger. 1-2 years later, switch to purple sand basin, the hole in the bottom of the basin had better have three or four holes. When putting on the basin, first put a piece of green yarn on the hole at the bottom of the basin (to prevent ants and other ants from drilling into the nest), then break 2-3 pieces of the basin, put it obliquely, and finally cover it with charcoal or cinder particles, the thickness of which is 1 inch 3 of the basin height. Next, spread a layer of crushed mud and add mountain mud, then move the orchid into the basin and straighten it up to make the roots stretch. At this time, pour enough water, put in a warm shade for 15-20 days, and then turn to daily care.

2. The environment for placing potted orchids should be selected. First, to the south or east; second, the surrounding space, humidity; third, to pad wooden frames or cement boards, etc., not on the ground.

3. When it is hot in summer, it is necessary to prevent the scorching sun. Early spring, late autumn and winter need a certain amount of light. In case of thunderstorm or rainstorm, prevent the basin soil from getting too wet to avoid rotting roots. Potted orchids should be often watered, so that "do not dry do not water, dry after watering, between dry and wet."

4. To fertilize orchids, we should adopt the principle of applying thin fertilizer frequently, and do not apply thick fertilizer or unfermented raw fertilizer.

5. Potted orchids should cut off dead or diseased leaves at any time to keep the plant shape beautiful. Branches and leaves with poor growth should be picked in time so as not to consume nutrients and affect plant growth.

6. Potted orchids should pay attention to anti-freezing. Move people indoors before freezing and keep them at 1-2 ℃ at room temperature to survive the winter safely.

How to divide the plant

The propagation of orchids is carried out by the method of dividing plants, which can be carried out when there are too many and too dense plants in the basin, which affect the further growth. Ramet is suitable to be carried out in spring and autumn, every 2-3 years or 3-4 years. Ramet should be carried out when the basin soil is slightly dry, first dig out the whole plant from the basin, remove the soil between the roots, wash and dry with clean water for 2-3 hours, cut off the rotten roots, cut off the rotten roots with a sharp knife, gently pat the "root net", straighten the roots, follow their root lines, and then cut or break them open so as not to hurt the tender roots.

When ramet, it is generally planted in a triangle or mesh shape from 3-5 clumps to a basin.

How to choose and buy

Before and after the Spring Festival, orchids are often supplied in the flower market, when Chunlan already has buds, and some roots have Cuiyun grass and exposed roots. In the selection and purchase, to choose the leaf luster thick green, fleshy root fresh and healthy, bud tall and straight is better. This kind of orchid has strong vitality and is easy to grow and develop and blossom after planting in the pot. If the leaves are withered and yellow, the roots are withered and the buds are drooping, the survival rate is low, or there is no flowering after planting.
