1、 Breeding conditions

1. Soil: it prefers a special substrate with nutrition and good water permeability

2. Light: when the first leaf grows in the process of plant breeding, it shall be properly shaded to reduce the overall growth environment temperature. When 4-6 leaves grow, it shall be protected from sunlight for more than 10 hours a day. When the sunlight is strong in summer, it shall be properly shaded

3. Watering: water should be given as appropriate. It is not very drought resistant, so the growth environment should maintain a certain degree of humidity, but no ponding. If ponding may lead to root rot or leaf discoloration

4. Fertilization: in autumn, it will have fallen leaves, especially for a period of time. At this time, it needs a lot of fertilization to ensure that its nutrients will not be lost, and it should also be fertilized in time when it shoots in spring

2、 Breeding method

1. Cuttings: it is usually carried out from April to may in spring. Cut small plants from the roots of plants, put them in the shade to dry, and then dip a small amount of plant ash into plain sand

2. Ramet: it is usually carried out from March to April. It is sown in a flowerpot, put it in a place away from the shade after giving water, and keep it wet. It can germinate in about 25 days under the condition of 25 ℃ - 30 ℃

3、 Precautions

When the snow orchid develops to four leaves, the growth temperature should be controlled at about 13 ℃ - 14 ℃, which can promote the growth of leaves. When the flowers first appear, the temperature should be controlled at 10 ℃ - 25 ℃, which can promote flowering. After the flowers open, the temperature can be reduced to 15 ℃, which can prolong the flowering period
