What kind of plant is green orchid? what are the requirements for the culture of green orchid?

Are green orchids two kinds of plants? Seeing such a title, many friends will have doubts. However, some netizens pointed out that the green orchid refers to the green orchid, because it is a kind of rattan plant, hanging down quite a hanging orchid demeanor. So, what are the requirements for the breeding of green orchids?

Green pineapple belongs to Araceae, Colocasia, climbing vine and foliage flowers, native to Central and South America. The green radish vine is several meters long and has air roots at the internodes. With the increase of growth age, the stem becomes thicker and the leaves become larger and larger.

I. physiological characteristics

Sex likes warm and humid environment, which requires loose, fertile soil and good drainage. Potted green pineapple should choose rotten leaf soil with fertile, loose and good drainage, and partial acidity is better. Green pineapple is extremely shady and can be placed all the year round in the sunny place indoors. In darker rooms, it should be moved to a strong light environment every half month to restore for a period of time, otherwise it is easy to make the internodes grow and the leaves become smaller. The overwintering temperature of green pineapple should not be lower than 15 ℃. In order to keep the basin soil moist, water should be often sprayed to the leaves to increase the air humidity to facilitate the growth of aerial roots. Liquid fertilizer can be irrigated once a month during the vigorous growth period. For long-term indoor ornamental plants, the leaves at the base of the stem are easy to fall off and reduce the ornamental value, which can be pruned and renewed in May and June when the temperature is getting warmer, so as to promote the sprouting of the basal stem.

Second, temperature

In winter, green pineapple can survive the winter safely when it is more than 10 ℃, and it can grow normally when it is over 20 ℃. Therefore, the general home environment is more suitable for the growth of green apple. In the north, the green pineapple can survive the winter safely when the room temperature is above 10 ℃, and the green pineapple can grow normally when the room temperature is above 20 ℃. Attention should be paid to avoid excessive temperature difference and to keep the leaves away from the heating equipment. At the same time, open windows as little as possible when the temperature is low, because the leaves may be frostbitten in a very short period of time.

Third, lighting

The original growth condition of green pineapple is in the forest sheltered by towering trees, the positive direction is not strong. However, in the north of autumn and winter, in order to supplement the deficiency of temperature and photosynthesis, its illuminance should be increased. The way is to put the green pineapple in the place with the best indoor light, or move to the sealed balcony to bask in the sun at noon.

4. Moisture

Planting green pineapple, watering can not be too much, you can spray water where it takes root, which can reduce the rate of water evaporation. Water every day to keep the soil wet, but do not accumulate water to breed mosquitoes. The amount of watering in autumn and winter should be strictly controlled according to room temperature. Before heating, the temperature is lower and the soil evaporation of the plant is slower. In order to reduce watering, the amount of water should be controlled between the original 1max, 4ml, 1max and 2. Even after heating, watering should not be too frequent, watering should be less into the basin. Winter water to dry after a day of water is better, the water is too cold easy to damage the roots.

5. Fertilizer

Fertilizing the leaves of green pineapple, because the ordinary inorganic fertilizer is very difficult to be absorbed, therefore, it is necessary to use special fertilizer. In autumn and winter in the north, plants grow slowly or even stop growing, so fertilization should be reduced. Before winter, liquid inorganic fertilizer is mainly poured and sprayed, and the time is about 15 days. After winter, fertilization is mainly sprayed through the stomata on the leaf surface, and the fertilizer is absorbed through the stomata on the leaf surface, and the fertilizer effect can be directly affected on the leaf surface.

The green pineapple is so rough that it can survive without more care. Just whether it can be as dense as the orchid, and the leaves are bright green, it may need to be cultivated by scientific means.
