Phalaenopsis normal flowering period is generally February to May, according to the author's experience, if properly maintained, it can make it bloom all the year round. My family raised a pot of "big safflower butterfly orchid" new varieties, cut off the flowers after the Spring Festival, after re-changing pots,"May 1" before the festival began to take out new flowers, July 1 opened the first flower, is now in continuous bloom, this is the second flowering in 2000. Culture methods are summarized as follows:

1. Expand the drain hole at the bottom of the ordinary clay basin, preferably make the drain hole area reach one third of the basin bottom area, and the clay basin is suitable for medium shallow and slightly larger caliber.

2. Use decomposed and blackened pine needles that are easy to get in life as culture medium. When putting on the basin, first pad one-third thick broken bricks at the bottom of the basin to facilitate drainage. Undecomposed pine needles should not be used because the fleshy roots of Phalaenopsis are easily stabbed and have poor water retention capacity.

3. Put a water tray at the bottom of the basin, and put the flower wood block 1 cm-2 cm high. The water seeping down after each watering is stored in the tray, which not only keeps the balcony sanitary, but also increases the air humidity of the water environment.

4. Pouring 50 times of Clivia culture solution once every 5 - 7 days, spraying water on leaves and flowerpot periphery twice-3 times a day when the temperature is above 25℃, and watering clean water once in the evening.

5. Put it in a well-ventilated place on the balcony and avoid direct sunlight.

6. The balcony temperature is basically consistent with indoor temperature during the day, 1℃-2℃ higher in summer and 1℃-2℃ lower in winter, so that it is basically maintained between 25℃-30℃. At night, try to reduce the balcony temperature and increase the temperature difference. (Note: Do not keep the temperature below 18 ° C in winter).

7. During the period of new leaves and flowering branches, the pots should be rotated every week to ensure that the leaves and flowering branches grow without bias.
