A brief introduction to Cartland

Cartland is one of the most famous flowers in the world. It is known as "the king of orchids" for its large appearance and gorgeous colors, and some varieties have fragrance and excellent ornamental quality. The history of cultivation in China is relatively short, and it has made great progress in recent years.

The scientific name of Cartland is Cattleya, which is translated as Katrilan or Cadrialan in China. There are many varieties, and the horticultural cultivation is mainly artificial hybrid varieties. In the past, people pursued large plant-shaped hybrids with large and colorful flowers, but in recent years, excellent individuals in small and medium-sized plants and native species are popular.

Cartland is a tropical or subtropical epiphytic orchid, its cultivation and management is different from the national orchid. First, the cultivation substrate, Cartland's plant material should choose water moss, blue stone, bark or fern root (serpent), which should be loose, breathable and clean, and must not use soil plant material; second, the ambient temperature, Cartland requires relatively high ambient temperature, its suitable temperature for growth is the same as Guolan (15Muk 30 ℃), the limit temperature that most varieties can withstand is 8 ℃, 36 ℃, and a few varieties can tolerate 5 Mueller 38 ℃. The third is the air humidity. Cartland, like most other foreign orchids, needs relatively high air humidity during the growing period, which should be maintained at about 70%, and good ventilation must be maintained at the same time; fourth, light management. Cartland needs higher light, but can not be directly exposed to sunlight, and the management can refer to the ink orchid in the country.

Buy Cartland should pay attention to the following points: first, there must be a login name. Cartland's login name is generally in Latin, and its login name is equivalent to an ID card, and its place of origin or lineage can be found from the landing materials. Those without a login name cannot be traced back to their roots and are difficult to be recognized; second, they should choose and buy varieties according to their own environmental management. Cartland has many varieties, different places of origin, and different requirements for environmental management among varieties. When choosing and purchasing, we should first understand the growth characteristics of the variety; third, we should pay attention to the differences between individuals. Cartland's propagation is generally divided into ramet and tissue culture, and tissue culture is divided into slice propagation (cloning) and seed propagation (hybridization). There is basically no individual difference in ramet or slice propagation, but there is a large individual difference in seed propagation.
