The feng shui of the flowering of tiger orchids means an auspicious sign that occurs once in a thousand years.

Guidelines for Flowering Conservation of Tiger Orchid Three Elements of Environmental Regulation To achieve the miracle of "waiting for a flower in ten years", precise control is needed: Light intensity: 4-6 hours scattered light per day Temperature range: 20-28℃ Gold growth temperature Humidity balance: Air humidity 50%-60% Advanced maintenance techniques use the "dry and wet cycle method" watering: water is permeable once a week in spring and summer, and once in autumn and winter and half months. Combined with phosphorus and potassium fertilizer once a month (diluted 1000 times), use ceramsite paving to enhance breathability. Special attention should be paid to avoid storing water on leaves at night to prevent the breeding of bacteria. Management points after flowering When white spikes wither, flower stems should be cut off in time to reduce nutrient consumption. At this time, it is necessary to supplement special fertilizer for leaf-viewing plants with high nitrogen content, and gradually move the plants to a slightly shady place for recuperation. It is worth noting that after flowering, the tiger lily will enter a dormant period of about half a year, and during this period, it is forbidden to change pots and transplant them.
