Why is the orchid not fragrant? there are four ways to make the orchid fragrant.
Orchids, plums, bamboos and chrysanthemums are known as the four gentlemen in flowers, which have been crowned as noble, simple and elegant since ancient times. So there is no shortage of people like it, and with the gradual improvement of living standards, more and more people will put a pot of orchids at home to show elegance. We all know that flowers have some fragrance, but why are some flower friends not fragrant?
1. Four reasons why orchids are not fragrant
I believe that flower friends who have raised orchids know that the flowers of orchids will also have some faint fragrance, although it is not as strong as that of some flowers, but if you smell it closely, you can smell the fresh fragrance of flowers. And in ancient times, there is a sentence describing the fragrance of orchids. When you smell it, you don't want to smell it. The fragrance is in an inadvertent place. This also shows that the flowers of orchids are fragrant, so why are the orchids of some flower friends not fragrant?
1. Variety problem
If the orchids are taken care of in full accordance with the cultivation methods of orchids, and the orchids are still not fragrant, then the problem is likely to arise in the varieties of orchids. For example, some of the spring orchids produced in some areas of Hubei and Henan have no fragrance. There are also bean orchids in Yunnan that do not have fragrance, so flower friends should also ask clearly when buying orchids.
2. Lack of light
Presumably many people will have a general understanding of the growth habits of orchids before raising orchids, so they know that orchids are a kind of semi-shady plants. But like semi-overcast does not mean that there is no need for sunlight, all plants need sunlight in the normal growth process. Therefore, when we breed orchids, we should properly expose them to the sun, so as not to say that the flowers have no fragrance.
3. Too little fertilizer
When we cultivate orchids, we know that orchids don't require much fertilizer, so we often ignore those things that fertilize orchids. In fact, even if there is little demand, we need to apply fertilizer, but we just don't need to apply a lot of fertilizer. Orchids will not cause orchid leaves yellowing, falling flowers and buds, which is very disadvantageous to its growth, so honey glands naturally have no way to produce fragrant honeydew.
4. The temperature is too low
Several varieties of orchids blooming in early spring and late winter should have some faint fragrance. But often because the temperature is too low, the honeydew of the honeydew is frozen by the cold air, so the fragrance can not be smelled. So we should move the orchid to a slightly warmer place in winter so that we can smell the flowers naturally.
2. Fragrant and unfragrant orchids
All over the world, everyone's preferences are different. Some people just like the smell of flowers, but some people also choose plant varieties that are not fragrant because they do not like the smell of flowers or are allergic to them. So what kinds of orchids have fragrance and which ones don't?
Generally speaking, national orchids (spring orchids, cymbidium, Jianlan, cold orchids, ink orchids, spring swords, lotus orchids) all have bursts of fragrance. However, the bean orchid in the national orchid has no fragrance, and the foreign orchid (Cartland, honeybee orchid, Phalaenopsis, Cymbidium, Dendrobium, Oncidium, Magnolia, etc.) basically has no fragrance when it blossoms.
So when we flower friends choose orchids, we can decide whether to buy orchids with or without fragrance according to our own preferences. If you like fragrant orchids, you can choose Chunlan in the national orchid, because Chunlan is the best-smelling variety among the fragrant varieties. If you don't like the fragrance of flowers, you can buy orchids.
Orchids are non-toxic but should not be placed in the bedroom
We often hear that orchids are poisonous, so it causes some flower lovers who cultivate orchids to panic, so are orchids really poisonous? In fact, there is no such view, orchids are not only non-toxic, its aroma is also of great benefit to the respiratory tract of the human body. And orchids can also be used to make tea to drink, orchid tea taste is very mellow.
However, although orchids are not poisonous, some orchids have a strong fragrance, which can easily lead to insomnia and excitement over a long period of time. And plants do not have light for photosynthesis at night, so they will compete with the human body for oxygen, so orchids had better not be put in the bedroom.
