How to grow the Cymbidium goeringii variety Tongle Mei orchid? With price reference

The Cymbidium goeringii Tongle Mei was selected by Lu Yongsheng in Shanghai in 1914, and is also known as Caiyun Tongle Mei. Its characteristics are that the outer three petals of the orchid are lotus-shaped, the petal texture is glutinous and thick, with silkworm-moth-shaped column, and a large spread lip. The flower color is green, the shoulders are level, and the leaves are semi-drooping. So how do you grow it? Let's take a look.

The Cymbidium goeringii Tongle Mei has strict soil requirements; the potting medium is best placed at the very bottom, and a mesh cover should be placed over the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot to allow water to drain out easily. Then put the prepared soil into the pot, mainly in an appropriate amount. When potting, hold the orchid plant with your left hand as you lower it into the pot, so the orchid plant is not easily damaged. In daily care, you still need to water with a special organic nutrient for orchids, diluted 500 times, once a week, which can nourish and protect the roots, ensure the orchid's nutrition, and promote and preserve flowering.

The price of the Cymbidium goeringii Tongle Mei is around 200 yuan to 400 yuan.
