Why should bulbus be trimmed

Like all plants, bulbus should be pruned regularly to meet the needs of the environment and flowering after a period of maintenance. Bulbous orchid has strong sprouting power and is a kind of plant resistant to pruning. Moderate pruning can make the plant shape neat and beautiful, the branches uniform, enhance the light transmittance of the plant, and reduce the occurrence of diseases and pests

Pruning method of bulb orchid

Pick the heart: break the top advantage, promote the germination of lower axillary buds, or inhibit the overgrowth of branches, promote plant branching, and form a beautiful plant type. The method used is to pick the heart

When the plant type is intact and the branches are dense, the redundant axillary buds need to be removed to ensure that the plant is beautiful and the flowers are large and colorful

Pruning: dead branches, bad branches, unnecessary branches that hinder plant type, including young branches. It is conducive to thinning branches and leaves, improving ventilation, preventing diseases and pests, and making the plant compact and three-dimensional

The branches like the one below have obviously withered and can't sprout new buds. It's just a waste of nutrients to stay

Pruning: in order to prevent the plant branches and leaves from being too dense, the adventitious buds Germinating on the branches can be removed in time purposefully, so as not to consume nutrients; When the plant grows too vigorously, resulting in too dense branches and leaves, some branches and stems should be appropriately thinned or too dense leaves should be removed to improve the ventilation and light transmission conditions, so as to make the plant grow stronger and more conducive to flowering
