When the temperature drops below 10℃, the plant's growth will be inhibited; if the temperature drops below 5℃, it may cause irreversible cold damage to the plant, so be sure to take good warming measures in winter.
If you find that the leaves of Phalaenopsis Golden Princess become soft in winter, do not panic.First, check whether the temperature is too low; if so, immediately move the plant to a warm place with scattered light, such as indoors near a windowsill but away from direct cold drafts. Second, check the watering situation; if overwatering has damaged the roots, stop watering, wait until the medium is slightly dry, gently take out the plant, check the root system, cut off the rotted parts, and replant it in a new loose, breathable medium.
Phalaenopsis Golden Princess has a relatively long flowering period, generally lasting 2 - 3months.With proper care, generally speaking, a single Phalaenopsis plant can live 3 - 5years or even longer. Each year it may also send up flower stems and bloom again, bringing us surprise after surprise.
