Moreover, it has less light requirements, and is more drought-tolerant, so it is easy to raise, so it has won the love of many flower friends.
Crab claw orchid is also a flower plant of the cactus family, a full lazy plant, at the beginning, raising flowers and grass is to think that it is a lazy flower, happily raised it. Who knows?After raising, I found that it was a big pit, 3 reasons to tell you, crab claw orchid is not as easy to raise as we see and hear, only the flower friends who have raised it have a deep understanding.
Crab claw orchid is a "big pit", it is said to be drought tolerant, but it can not control the water during the growth period, otherwise, it will not grow new leaves, and it is difficult to bloom only old leaves;Moreover, it should not be watered too often, if the potting soil is too wet, it will cause crab claw rander rot.
When I raised crab claw orchid for the first time, I thought that it was resistant to drought and waterlogging, and it was watered relatively little, and only one leaf had grown, which was too annoyingLater, I changed the maintenance method and threw it outside to raise it in the open, but I didn't expect it to rot after a rain.
Especially in high temperature and cold, at this time, it is necessary to control the water cultivation of crab claw orchid, and water less in the hot shade, so as to keep it cool and ventilated to avoid it from rotting roots;It is not resistant to cold, and it is important to keep warm when it is cold to prevent frostbite.
Crab claw orchid likes a warm environment, afraid of the summer heat, the temperature reaches 30 court to timely shade, strengthen ventilation, if the environment is hot and humid, crab claw orchid will get rot disease, leaf blight, etc., divided into black rot hanging.
Raising crab claw orchid, only to find that it is a "big pit", in poor ventilation, but also easy to grow scale insects, but rarely, found in time, was scraped off by me with a toothpick, unfortunately, later it still died in the summer.
Speaking of which, it is a plant of the cactus family, and it is not as heat- and sun-resistant as cacti. In the hot summer, be sure to put the crab claw orchid in a cool and ventilated place, and the potting soil should not be too wet, otherwise, the crab claw orchid will suffer from rot and wilt.

When you start, the merchant will also tell you that the crab claw orchid is drought-tolerant and easy to raise, and it will bloom in winter.
In winter, when the crab claw orchid blooms, the room temperature is below 10 degrees, and the flowers and buds will fall off, which is too squeamish, it is afraid of cold flowers, and the room temperature should be above 10 degrees during the flowering period.
My crab claw orchid was very beautiful when I started with potted flowers, and it almost never bloomed for 2 years. I know that it is drought-tolerant and has less watering, and phosphorus and potassium fertilizer is also used before flowering, and it is also placed indoors in a position with scattered light for maintenance, but people don't bloom to show you, which is too annoying.
