How easy is it to grow Jianlan Emei Xian? Emei Xian orchids like to grow in clusters, and there are no single-stem ones.

The price is also the price per stem, generally 100 yuan to 150 yuan per stem.

The leaf characteristics of Emei Xian are thick, fleshy leaves with a very good gloss, glossy green, with silver running through the entire back; the new shoots are bright red, and the flower colors are fresh and elegant, with a charming delicate fragrance. It is one of the ten most free-flowering Jianlan varieties, and it can bloom 3 to 4 times a year, making it a Jianlan flower worth growing.
