Pruning

After blooming and withering, we must remember to cut off the flowers of the plant, so as to avoid unnecessary loss of nutrients, which will have a bad impact on the next year's flowering.

Moisture

After flowering, the large flower of Whelan must remember not to water too much water. The so-called "not dry in autumn, not wet in winter" is the No. 2 rule of keeping orchids. So we can often use the method of water spray to make up water, to avoid the rotten root caused by water.

Illumination

Huilan, a big flower, especially likes some scattered light. Because if the plant can't receive enough light, the leaves may turn yellow. So we should put the flowerpot on the windowsill in the sun to make sure that the plant is under proper light.

Temperature

Huilan, a big flower, likes a warm temperature. Even in winter, it can't be lower than 8 ℃. If it's indoors, then in the early spring, when the indoor heating stops, the plants may die because of the low temperature. Plastic film can be used to cover the flowerpot, so as to achieve the effect of heat preservation, to ensure that the temperature is more than 10 degrees.

Change basin

The best way to change the basin is when the temperature is warm before and after the Qingming Festival. You should choose the bucket flowerpot with good ventilation, and make a drainage layer with broken tiles inside. The soil needs to be disinfected before use. After replacement, do not water too much, just a little.
