Taking Care Of Your Jewel Orchid

The Jewel Orchid or Ludisia imparts unmatched beauty to its admirers. It is considered a delicacy in Thailand and is often sent as a gift on special occasions. The Jewel Orchid grows in all continents of the world but is most famous in Asia. They are among the easiest indoor plants to maintain. The following tips will help you prepare your environment for planting orchids.

The Jewel Orchid’s official name is Ligustrum Ovalifolium. It is named after the ancient city of Troy, which is situated in southern Europe. Unlike other orchids, the jewel orchid grows in living soil and does not require fertilization, although it does enjoy some sunlight.

Growing jewel orchid plants from seed is considered illegal in some regions so it is better to purchase them through a dealer or from online sources. Seedlings can be purchased directly from nurseries or at yard sales. Before purchasing your orchid species, determine if they can be cared for in a similar manner in which you would raise them yourself. Determine what type of climate your location has. Identify the depth and width of the pot in which the plants will be grown and whether they will require root access.

Potting mix is crucial for successful growing of the jewel orchid. It should contain loam, grit, sand, perlite, bone meal, coconut fiber, potting soil and water. You should have a minimum of three inches of space between the potting mix and the roots. Be sure that it is completely covered with dirt. The primary concern is to have low light levels and high moisture content.

Care should be taken not to burn the bark of the orchid. Apply a mixture of one tablespoon of bleach and one tablespoon of liquid nitrogen to the trunk alone. Be careful to keep the surrounding area clean of any orchid bark or debris. Do not use the hydrogen peroxide on leaves or petals. Allow them to dry completely before wearing the orchid bark gloves.

Most jewel orchids are sensitive to extreme temperatures. Place pots in a room that has a temperature between seventy and eight five degrees Fahrenheit. Keep your plants out of direct sun but don’t place them in rooms where there is low humidity or over fifty degrees Fahrenheit. The constant heat can cause the roots to rot and die.

It is important that you take care of your flowers and houseplants properly. Flowering plants should be kept separate from houseplants and potted plants should have their own potting mix. Make sure that you water your flowers only when the soil surface feels dry. Watering on a daily basis will help the plant to develop strong root systems.

If you are growing jewel orchids indoors, then you will need to monitor the humidity. You can do this by using a humidity meter. You will want to set the meter to the desired level of ten percent humidity. This will help your plants stay healthy and will prevent the development of mold or mildew.

If you choose to grow these orchids indoors, then you may find that it is a very time-consuming task. There are two options for you: you can purchase a small plastic grow tray for your plant, or you can opt for a hanging orchid pot. Hanging pots tend to be smaller and allow you to place more flowers in the same amount of space. This is great if you have many different kinds of plants you want to grow at once. Pots are also ideal if you have an odd number of orchids growing orchids.

A little trick that you can use to give your orchid a better appearance is by choosing a few different colors of the ludibranchia discolor which is the main constituent of the flower. You can have a deep green leaves, or you can have a deep pink veins running throughout the foliage. Once you have chosen between the two, carefully place the orchid in the pot and add the required amount of water. The orchid should begin to grow within a week, and you will begin to see the results almost immediately.

In order to ensure that the jewel orchid you have chosen grows properly, you should place the orchid in a humid area inside the house. This will help to speed up its growth, although there is no way to control the weather conditions. It can be a good idea to place a humidifier in the growing medium, as this will ensure that the orchid stays healthy. Another option is to place a few rocks next to the orchid pots, as this will encourage the roots to grow downwards.

When it comes to looking out for the ludibranchia discolor, it is very important that you check the underside of the leaves. Usually a jewel orchid will have a light or pale pink color, but over a period of time they will turn almost black. The most common cause is exposure to the sun, and it is therefore recommended that you cover the orchid if you live somewhere that gets too much heat.
