"Ode to the Orchid" Yipin Mei
yuesha
In the scorching summer heat seeking a thread of cool
A single Yipin flower blooms, hiding the moon
In the small tower, lightly speaking of ancient and modern
The jade beauty urges me to hurry and smell the fragrance
Tips for blooming form: Before the large row of bells (da pai ling), water should be sufficient, the light should not be too strong, which is conducive to producing a soft shen; when the flower scape is stretching, keep it appropriately in shade, increase humidity, and keep the temperature relatively even, which is conducive to the flower scape stretching taller!
