Orchids do not blossom for the following reasons:

1. Seedlings (seed seedlings) and tissue culture seedlings do not necessarily blossom even if they have been cultivated for many years, just like other plants, for example, fruit trees cannot blossom and bear fruit until a certain age, and orchids cannot blossom and bear seeds until a certain age.

2. The species differences among orchids are different, and it is also a common phenomenon that orchids are difficult to blossom due to different climatic conditions. Chunlan, for example, is more difficult to blossom in some areas, or can blossom less.

3. The physiological growth of orchids is disrupted due to various reasons, and new leaf buds burst during the formation of flower buds. In this case, the orchid plants do not have more nutrients to maintain the normal differentiation of flower buds, which leads to the cessation of flower bud growth and the failure of flowering.

4. Improper cultivation methods may also lead to the failure of orchid flowering. There are mainly the following situations: (1) the orchid plant material contains too much nitrogen fertilizer and less phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, which leads to excess vegetative growth and inhibition of reproductive growth.

(2) excessive watering during flower bud differentiation and wet plant materials will also lead to exuberant vegetative growth and inhibit reproductive growth. (3) lack of light is also one of the reasons why orchids do not bloom. Although orchids are shade-loving plants, they also need a certain amount of sunlight to maintain normal physiological activities.
