Stop Watering Your Phalaenopsis the Same Way in Autumn as in Summer, or Your Good Intentions Will Do Harm
"Can I just keep using my summer watering method for my Phalaenopsis in autumn?" Honestly, every time I see this question, I worry for the orchid. A Phalaenopsis in summer and one in autumn are like two people in completely different states: in summer it needs to "quench its thirst," while in autumn it needs to "stay alive." If you keep watering the old way, the roots will rot before you even realize what's happening.

5 recommended green plants that bloom all year round, flowering non-stop throughout the year
Someone asked me: "Why does your balcony have flowers to look at every day? The ones I grow either only produce leaves and no flowers, or bloom once and then give up." Actually, it's not that hard at all! Pick a few "flowering workhorses," and with just a little care, you can see fresh flower buds all year round. Anthurium: Its flowers are especially interesting, standing among the leaves like little candles, bright red and very eye-catching, and one flower can bloom for two months; once one fades, another pops up. The key is that it isn't picky about its environment; just place it in a spot with diffused light in the living room, and don't let it get too much sun, or the leaves will scorch. Watering is simple too; when you touch the surface of the potting soil and it's dry, water it, and occasionally spray a little water on the leaves, and it will grow vigorously. I used to be lazy and didn't water it for half a month; the leaves got a bit wilted, but after watering, it perked up the next day. It's really tough and easy to care for.
