Take care of cymbidium orchids like this in winter to keep the leaves lush and the flowers beautiful!

Winter management

For novice flower growers, Cymbidium is a relatively easy plant to grow and its management method is also simple; its flowering period is also in winter.

Avoid direct afternoon sun

In winter, cymbidium orchids need to be moved indoors for cultivation. Indoors in the north, they should avoid afternoon sunlight because the indoor temperatures in the north are very high. If sunlight is added at this time, it will be very detrimental to the growth of cymbidium orchids. Although the pink flowers will become more vivid and attractive under the sunlight, it does not mean direct sunlight.

Stay away from air conditioners and furnace vents

When growing Cymbidium orchids indoors in winter, try to keep them away from the air outlets of air conditioners and stoves, otherwise the leaves and buds of the Cymbidium orchids will turn yellow and eventually wither.

Watering

Because the temperature is generally low in winter, special attention should be paid to the degree of water shortage in the soil when watering. Water after the soil becomes dry, or two days after you observe it becoming dry. The best time to water is around 9 am, and enough water should be poured at one time.

flowering

The indoor temperature is relatively dry in winter, but the cymbidium needs to keep the environment moist when it is blooming. At this time, you can use a spray bottle to spray water on the environment around the cymbidium and the plant itself to keep it moist.

Fertilization

No fertilizer is needed in winter.

If large patches of cymbidiums are used to decorate a relatively open interior, it will be a very spectacular landscape. While retaining its beauty, it will also enhance the extraordinary style of the space.
