Because of the different names in different places, the common names are "pearl hanging orchid, Buddha bead and lover's tears".

How to raise Buddha beads and orchids:

Pearl orchid prefers loose and fertile soil rich in organic matter. It grows best in the environment of warmth, high humidity and strong scattered light. High temperature and high humidity should be avoided in summer, otherwise it is easy to rot stems and die. Potted flowers can be cultivated in the shade of rain protection. After autumn, the plants will resume growth, increase light and topdressing liquid fertilizer.

The culture methods of Buddha beads and orchids:

1. Methods of reproduction:

The propagation method of Cymbidium is mostly cutting method, which can trim the branches and leaves, each section is 8-10 cm, then insert it into the basin soil, half cover, the humidity is controlled between 50% and 60%, take root in 10 days to half a month, and then take good care of it in order to survive. At this time, it is most beneficial to plant growth to strictly control the amount of water and keep the pot soil in the state between dry and wet.

2. Cultivation management:

Dry rather than wet is one of the key points in the cultivation of Cymbidium. In addition, it is also extremely important to apply thin fertilizer frequently. The so-called dry rather than wet is because the orchid from southern Africa likes a warm environment and is more drought-resistant than waterlogged, so it would rather be placed in a dry environment than stunted by too much watering. On the other hand, the frequent application of thin fertilizer says that fertilizer should be applied frequently, but each time it is light fertilizer, and one time it can not be fertilized too much, which leads to problems in its growth.

In fact, there are few insect pests in Buddha bead orchids, but this is still the case. Generally speaking, the most common disease of Buddha bead orchid is aphid disease, which occurs in spring. When encountering this kind of phenomenon, it should be killed with 500 times omethoate. And in summer there will be mites, which can be killed 1000 times with triclofenac.

When the weather is dry, you can spray water to the leaves and vines to make up for the lack of moisture and keep the beads green and full. Prefer semi-shade, sun exposure may burn beads, too weak light will not grow strong.

2. The root system of the plant is very shallow and can be planted in shallow pot. Generally use tiles to cover the bottom hole, and cover with a layer of cinder or coarse sand to increase air permeability and filtration, the soil is best to use rotten leaf soil, mixed with a certain amount of sand, the soil-to-sand ratio is about 1:3.

3. Sex is warm and humid, cold-resistant and high-temperature resistant, and the optimum temperature is about 20 ℃ ~ 28 ℃. Both high temperature and low temperature grow slowly, especially when the temperature is more than 30 ℃, it is almost dormant. Less watering and fertilization should be done, otherwise the roots are easy to rot, which is also one of the keys to successful cultivation.

4. In the spring and autumn when the growth is exuberant, "thin fertilizer" should be applied frequently. Spraying 1-3 ‰ nitrogen fertilizer and potassium dihydrogen phosphate on the leaf surface is beneficial to make the pearl more green and fat and improve the ornamental value.
