The pruning method of crab claw orchid should be carried out according to the growth period. If it is in the growth stage, it is mainly to trim the redundant leaves to avoid the messy shape of the whole plant and reduce the aesthetic feeling. If it is pruned at the flowering stage, it is mainly to thinly cut the flower buds. If it is too much, it is easy to have bad flowering. After thinning, it can save a lot of nutrients and prolong the flowering stage. If you trim after the flower, trim the remaining flowers, and cut off the two or three stems and leaves under the remaining flowers to promote faster recovery.

1、 How to prune

1. Growing season pruning: prune gently during growing season. Its growth rate is relatively fast, and redundant leaves will grow on the stem nodes, which should be cut off in time after discovery. If it is not trimmed, the whole will become very messy and affect the appearance
