There are three specific measures for the winter care of Junzilan:

1. Control watering.

On sunny days, you should put the orchid in a sunny place, especially before flowering, you should give enough light, pay attention to anti-freezing and keep warm, and turn the pot 180 degrees every few days to help the leaves grow neatly and beautifully.
