How beautiful orchids are, especially when they are in full bloom!
It sounds simple to grow them, but it’s not really!
For a seemingly trivial reason, branches with their wonderful, still-closed buds can suddenly fall. When this happens, not everyone realizes how important it is to guide the new stem in the right direction. In fact, if left to its own devices, it could grow all the way to the ground. Due to the force of gravity and the weight of the new shoots, it could break again—a dog chasing its tail and compromising the plant’s health!
So what can we do to prevent further damage and restore the beauty of this plant?
Curious? Let’s get started!
Beautiful flowering orchids: just a pinch of these ingredients.
Beautiful flowering orchids: just a pinch of these ingredients. Curious?
If the orchid has a broken branch , observe and analyze the severity of the damage as before.
If the twig is still only attached to part of the stem, remove it completely. This will create a new shoot, perhaps less full of shoots than the previous one, but still pleasing to the eye.
Use only sterilized shears to ensure a clean, aseptic cut, making re-cutting easier.
So what? Seal the plant’s wound with this phenomenal ingredient: cinnamon! Thanks to its antibacterial and antifungal properties , you’ll prevent the possible onset of infections or diseases.
Use the powdered form you use to flavor your special recipes and simply spread it over the broken area. This will create a kind of “band-aid” that will help heal the wound in a very short time, while also promoting the growth of new growth.
Now take care of the plant, which needs some time to regain its strength, water it from time to time and spray the leaves and stems with fresh water.
