Orchids can decorate any home. To ensure that these flowers do not wither and please the eye, you need to follow simple rules of care.
Some gardeners make a number of mistakes and do not understand why the orchid does not bloom.
First of all, this plant needs to be watered differently than many other flowers.
Water is poured into the tray, and then a pot with a plant is placed on it.
After a few hours, the orchid is removed and the next time it is watered only after the substrate has completely dried.
The roots of the plant deserve special attention. It is not recommended to rush to cut off old roots.
New roots grow very slowly, as do the leaves, so experienced gardeners never rush to remove this part.
Another important nuance concerns the sun's rays. The orchid will die in the sun.
It is better to place the flower in partial shade so that it is not exposed to direct sunlight.
In addition, the orchid is a tasty target for pests.
If you see that something is happening to your orchid, you should check for pests.
The situation can get out of control very quickly.
Ignoring this problem is not recommended under any circumstances.
