When will the latest orchid blossom?
Cymbidium is a perennial evergreen herb of Liliaceae, with tufted cylindrical fleshy roots and short rhizomes, with slender, drooping branches for potted plants to watch. Placing Cymbidium at home has become a fashion, and it is evergreen all the year round and has a very high ornamental value. Let's take a look at when the orchid blossoms.
When will the orchid blossom?
The orchid blossoms in early May every year, and will bloom throughout the summer if the conditions are right. The flowers of Cymbidium are white, often 2-4 clusters, arranged in open racemes or panicles. The pedicel is 7mm long and the joint is located from the middle to the upper part. Perianth segments 7 × 10 mm, 3-veined. Stamens slightly shorter than perianth segments. Anther moment orbicular, 1-1.5 mm long, significantly shorter than filaments, often curled after dehiscence.
Why don't orchids blossom?
The main results are as follows: 1. Cymbidium is lack of phosphorus: when it is deficient in phosphorus, it cannot form flower buds, and it cannot blossom without flower buds. When the flower bud is not formed in the flowering stage, the compound fertilizer with higher phosphorus and potassium can be buried at the edge of the pot to promote the flower bud formation, which will have a better hope of flowering.
2. Lack of sunshine: Cymbidium can not photosynthesis in dark position for a long time, can not produce more nutrients to provide flower bud growth, and will not blossom without flower buds, so it can be moved out of the room to bask in more sun to enhance photosynthesis.
3. Watering is too wet: although the orchid likes the wet environment, it is too wet for a long time, especially in the winter flower bud differentiation period, it is appropriate to maintain a relatively dry environment to promote flower bud differentiation, so it is easier to blossom one month before flowering.
How to make the orchid blossom more?
1. Proper watering: sufficient water must be given to the orchid before and after flowering, which is conducive to the growth of new stems. You should know that those florets are blooming on the stem, the more stems, the better the flowering.
2. Supplement phosphate fertilizer: phosphate fertilizer can promote flower bud germination, proper application of phosphorus fertilizer before flowering stage can also promote plant growth, but also apply a small amount of nitrogen and potassium fertilizer, but mainly phosphorus, diluted with water.
3. Sufficient light: although Cymbidium likes shade, proper light is beneficial to the growth and flowering of the plant. It can put the plant in half light and half shade in April and avoid strong light at the same time.
How to breed the orchid?
1. Lighting: hanging orchid likes semi-shady environment and is very sensitive to light. When the sun shines directly in summer and autumn, the leaves will wither and yellow, and even the whole plant will die. In winter, because the sun is not strong, we can let the orchid accept some direct sunlight properly.
2. Temperature: hanging orchid likes warm and humid climate, can not tolerate severe cold and heat, the optimum growth temperature is 15: 25 ℃, and the room temperature in winter should not be lower than 5 ℃. Avoid strong light in high temperature, but see more sunshine in low temperature and cold.
3. Watering: Diaolan likes water, has strong drought resistance, and needs more water during the peak growth period from March to September, so it should be watered and sprayed frequently to keep the basin soil completely moist. In the winter dormant period, you can wait until the surface of the basin soil is about 1 cm deep dry before watering.
4. Fertilization: Cymbidium is a more fertilizer-tolerant plant. If there is not enough fertilizer and water, it is easy for the scorched head to grow old, and the leaves turn yellow and lose its ornamental value. For those who have begun to grow small plants, nitrogen fertilizer is applied once every half a month, and those with good growth are not allowed to apply nitrogen fertilizer.
5. Soil: hanging orchid should use light and fertile sandy loam, which requires that the soil contains humus and strong permeability. Potted plants can use rotten leaf soil or peat soil, garden soil and river sand mixed with a small amount of base fertilizer as the substrate.
6, change the basin: the hanging orchid should change the basin once every March, if the basin is deeper and the base fertilizer is enough, it can be changed once every two years. When turning the pot, knock the plant out of the basin, cut off the withered roots and excess roots, replace it with new culture soil and apply sufficient base fertilizer.
7, diseases and insect pests: hanging orchid is generally not easy to occur diseases and insect pests, the occurrence of diseases is generally stagnant water in basin soil, poor ventilation caused by root rot and root rot, should be timely spray control. The dense plant clusters are poorly ventilated and are vulnerable to scale insects, so prevention should be given priority to.
8. Pruning: the orchid should cut off the yellow leaves at any time and turn the basin once a year in March to cut off the old root, rotten root and excess fibrous root. The old leaves of Cymbidium can be cut off in the first and middle of May, which will promote the germination of more new leaves and small Cymbidium.
