The optimum growth temperature is 15 ℃ 25 degrees Celsius, and the room temperature in winter should not be less than 5 degrees Celsius. Avoid strong light in high temperature season, need to keep shade sparse, low temperature and cool time should see more sunlight, in order to keep the leaf color bright.

3. Watering: Yinbian Cymbidium likes water, because its fleshy root has developed water storage tissue and strong drought resistance, but it needs more water during the peak growth period from March to September, so it should be watered and sprayed frequently to increase humidity and keep the basin soil completely moist. During the dormant period in winter, the basin soil can be watered after it is dry at a depth of about one centimeter.

4. Fertilization: Cymbidium is a more fertilizer-tolerant plant. If there is not enough fertilizer and water, it is easy for the scorched head to age, the leaves turn yellow and lose ornamental value. For Cymbidium which has begun to grow plantlets, nitrogen topdressing can be applied every half a month. If the orchid grows well, it can be done without fertilization.

5. Soil: the cultivation of Cymbidium is suitable for easy and fertile sandy loam, which requires that the soil contains humus and strong permeability. Potted plants can use rotten leaf soil or peat soil, garden soil and river sand mixed with a small amount of base fertilizer as the substrate. After changing the basin, we should pay attention to the re-preparation of new soil.
