I. duration of florescence

Under normal curing conditions, Phalaenopsis which is more than 2 years old can blossom. It usually begins to blossom in April and begins to thank flowers in June. The flowering period can last about 2-3 months. However, if it is treated properly, it can open again after 2-3 months of Xiehua. However, this time can not be too long, usually only a month or so.

Second, the method of secondary flowering

1. Pruning the flower stem: after the flower fades, it needs to be pruned in time. But don't cut off all of its flower stems, but cut it short from 4-5 nodes at the base. This can help it save a lot of nutrients in order to blossom again.

2. Reasonable maintenance: after pruning, put the plant in a position where there is enough scattered light and maintain a temperature of about 20 ℃. Replenish water and fertilizer in time, so that it can quickly accumulate nutrients and blossom again.

Matters needing attention

Although it can blossom twice, it will consume a lot of nutrients in the plant. If it blossoms twice in one year, it may blossom for less time in the next year.
