Why do the leaves of peony hanging orchid turn pale after 10 days of cutting?
Peony hanging orchid is very easy to propagate, making it a flower very suitable for beginners. Cutting propagation can be successful in minutes. Just pinch off its branches and stick them into the soil next to them. In about 7 to 8 days, they can grow leaves or even bloom, with basically no difficulty. However, some friends still have pale leaves after 10 days of cutting. What's going on?
First, the soil is too wet
Peony hanging orchid is a succulent plant with thick branches. The wound is quite large when the branch is just pinched off. After cutting, the soil should be slightly moist. Remember not to water too much, as the wound is easily infected, and the branch begins to lose water and becomes withered, gradually spreading upwards. Since it doesn't take root, it won't absorb nutrients, and the leaves will gradually fade, leading to the failure of cutting. In the past, peony hanging orchids were cut in slightly moist soil, and they basically had a 100% survival rate.
Second, the wound is damaged
When cutting peony hanging orchid, try not to pinch the branch with your hand, as this will compress the tissue around the wound. If the tissue around the wound is compressed and injured, it is not easy to survive when planted in the soil. It's best to cut it with a sharp knife or scissors in one go, without damaging the surrounding tissue, which greatly improves the survival rate of cutting.

Third, the soil is too dry
Generally, the soil for cutting should be kept slightly moist, and the roots are easily germinated in a moist environment. If the soil is too dry after cutting, it can also cause the wound to lose water and gradually become dry, leading to easy failure of cutting.
As long as the soil moisture, looseness, and temperature (above 15 degrees) are ensured when cutting peony hanging orchid, there is almost no failure. Peony hanging orchid is also the easiest hanging orchid to care for. If you are a beginner at gardening, it is recommended to keep a pot. Its leaves are lush and the flowers are delicate, making it very ornamental.
Much sun exposure helps with more flowering. If there is insufficient sunlight, it is easy for the leaves to become large. However, it's fine. These thick, large leaves can be pinched off, blanched, and used as a delicious dish.
