Raise a gentleman orchid according to these three steps to make a leaf and change it into 10 leaves for half a year.

If the gentleman orchid is properly maintained, it can bloom twice a year, and some flower friends are so experienced that they can even blossom three times. But if you want the orchid to blossom, there is a premise that it must be an adult orchid, and there are also young plants blooming, but most of the flowers will be sandwiched with arrows. Therefore, before the orchid blossoms, the key is to make the orchid big and the leaves wide and thick.

First prepare rotten leaves, ordinary garden soil, pine needles and gravel, and then mix well according to the ratio of 2 to 2 and 1 to 0.5. The role of rotten leaves and pine needles is to provide microbial growth environment and some trace elements and other nutrients, as well as heat preservation, water retention and air permeability, which are most suitable for the respiration and growth of Cymbidium fleshy roots.
