18-24 ˚C.

New blooms
The Phalaenopsis orchid can bloom several times a year. When the plant has finished flowering, cut the stalk of the flower above the second or third eye. A new flower stalk can emerge from this. The plant also lays a flower stalk under each new leaf. If a plant makes new leaves, but does not want to flower, then stop giving the plant any fertilizer. Place it in a slightly cooler space, such as a guest room where it is between 15 and 18 ˚C. If you see the new flower stalk, put the plant back in the living room. When the plant starts to bloom again, the flowers are white in color.

Paphiopedilum USA Hybride 1 bloemThe Paphiopedilum is by far one of the most unique and intriguing of all orchids. Its exotic, wax-like, richly colored blooms last for weeks and sometimes months. The Paphiopedilum comes from Asia and Central America. She grows between rocks and under trees to protect herself from the sun. The shoe-shaped lip serves as an insect trap; flying insects are lured by fragrances and the promise of nectar in the flower. Once in the lip, the insects can only exit through a narrow opening. This way they hit the pistil and the stamens and they get the pollen on their bodies. With a next flower, the pollen ends up on the pestle. Paphiopedilums have no attractive, glossy leaves. But after these leaves are fully formed, the flower stalk rises from the centre of the new growth to form one of the most unusual flowers in the world. Best of all, they are ideal for home growing.

Cymbidium p12 Anna 2T - kopie

Cymbidiums are prized for their long sprays of blooms, which make lovely arrangements as well as corsages. Their thick, waxy petals open in the spring and often remain on their stems for up to two months. Cymbidium orchids are different from most other varieties in that they thrive on cooler weather and often won’t even bloom if the daytime temperature gets too hot. They do need a lot of moisture, however, so think about a cooler jungle when you’re considering the environment where you want to plant them. Originally the Cymbidium comes from South Asia. The Cymbidium can bloom for six to eight weeks and is available in many colors. When the Cymbidium grows too large for its pot, you can tear the plant in half and divide it into two or three pieces.
