How to care for an orchid after flowering

Like most other plants, orchids require a period of dormancy or dormancy before they bloom again.

Depending on the condition after flowering, the stem can be left, trimmed or removed.

Shortening the frog not only helps the flower grow, but also allows it to retain nutrients that can be used by other parts.

If the orchid peduncle has turned completely yellow, then cut it off at the base.

The orchid can be replanted, especially if the roots have protruded excessively from the pot.

After the orchid blooms, care comes down to reducing watering.

The plant can be either watered or sprayed from above.

If there is a need to replant the orchid, then after planting it in a new pot, the plant must be moved to a new place.

Watering should be reduced to once a month, without adding fertilizers.
