Phalaenopsis can't bloom at the early stage of cultivation. It can only bloom after three years of cultivation. It usually blooms around the Spring Festival, that is, February to March. The flowering period is very long, and the viewing time can reach 2-3 months. When the flower withers, it may have a second flowering period if it is well maintained, but generally, it is only cultivated once at home, so as to promote its second flowering, so it is necessary to control the temperature.
