Brother Hua changed the pot of the orchid and cut off the old Reed's head and threw the passing uncle to pick it up and say thank you for going home three times.

Nowadays, raising orchids has also become a trend. In the orchid market, you can't put it down with a dazzling array of orchids. If you're not an expert, you really don't see any way. Because from the expert's point of view, the orchids they like should be evaluated comprehensively in many ways, not at will, and buy them as soon as they are comfortable. This is what happens to novices like us.

Like orchids does not mean to understand orchids, for more suitable for the popular trend of orchids, but also the bonsai pursued by many people. But if you want to understand orchids, you have to consult the teacher. For those of us who like to raise orchids, as long as their orchids grow well and have luxuriant branches and leaves, they can be said to be successful. Other experiences need to be studied hard.

Well, that's what people who don't know about orchids do. Zhang Minghua is one of them and he is also my best friend. On the National Day in October the year before last, he saw that the two pots of spring orchids he had maintained had exploded. In order not to let the orchid continue to grow in the narrow space, decided to buy pots for the orchid to separate, so that there is more room for the healthy growth of the orchid. So he asked a few of us to help him, run errands, and get some fresh mountain soil, humus, red brick particles, etc., ready to change pots.

When changing pots for Chunlan, the moment the soil was turned over, it was a pleasant surprise. Chunlan's roots were full of flowerpots, and there were a lot of old Reed heads. Before he could figure it out, Brother Hua took the scissors and began to trim the roots, and casually cut off the old Reed heads of the withered leaves, with the appearance of seven or eight.

Then split the plant into pots, and in order not to confuse the scene, Brother Hua asked me to throw away the useless old Reed head. I happened to be seen by Uncle Qiu, who was passing by, and hurriedly told me not to throw it, saying that I would try it myself. I didn't say a word and gave it all to him. Uncle Qiu was also very polite and hurriedly said three thanks and left in a hurry.

It was later learned that Uncle Qiu was an expert in orchid cultivation and had a thorough grasp of the varieties and growth habits of orchids. The old Reed head we are going to throw away can also grow good seedlings under his training and management. If we hadn't seen it with our own eyes, we would have been skeptical. It was March this year, and when we were playing at his house, he had no intention to mention it and showed us the old Lutou bluegrass we threw that year. It was really extraordinary, with luxuriant branches and leaves, which was better than Brother Hua's orchid. To that end, we have to learn from him.
