Today, I'm going to give you a detailed introduction to Phalaenopsis Chaqun 2180.

Phalaenopsis Chaqun 2180 has a large pink lip. The flower color is pink and tender, and the petals are thick. The flower shape is beautiful, and the size of the flower is moderate. Whether it is placed in the living room or the bedroom, it can immediately become the focus and make the whole space warm.

The flowering period of Phalaenopsis Chaqun 2180 is quite可观. Generally speaking, if it is properly cared for, it can bloom for 3 - 4 months.

Planting methods:

1. Substrate selection: Moss, bark, etc. can be used as substrates. The key is to be loose and breathable.
2. Pot selection: Don't choose a pot that is too big. It's just a little bigger than the root system of the plant. There should be drainage holes at the bottom of the pot so that excess water can flow out and the roots won't be soaked and rotten.
3. Planting steps: Moisten the substrate slightly and then put it into the pot. Then put the Phalaenopsis in, and gently cover the roots with the substrate. Be careful not to bury it too deep. Leave the stem exposed a little.

Rescue of root rot: If the roots of the Phalaenopsis accidentally rot, don't panic. First, take the Phalaenopsis out of the pot, and then rinse the roots with clean water. Cut off the rotten parts with clean scissors, and then place it in a cool and ventilated place to dry. Then plant it in a new substrate again. At this time, water less and wait for it to recover slowly.

Daily maintenance in winter:

1. Temperature: Phalaenopsis Chaqun 2180 likes warmth. Don't let it freeze in winter. The indoor temperature is preferably maintained at around 15 - 20 °C.
2. Light: Although it needs light, the winter sun can be quite strong sometimes, so don't let it be directly exposed to the sun. It can be placed in a place with scattered light. For example, pull a gauze curtain beside the window. Such light is just right.
3. Watering: In winter, water evaporates slowly, so water less. Touch the substrate with your hand. If it feels a little dry, then pour a little water. When watering, don't pour water on the leaves and flowers, otherwise they will easily rot. You can water slowly along the edge of the pot to let the water penetrate.
4. Humidity: Phalaenopsis likes a humid environment. In winter, the indoor environment is relatively dry. You can spray some water around or use a humidifier to increase the humidity to make it spend the winter comfortably.
