Growth habits of February orchid

February orchid has very strong cold tolerance and is also fairly shade-tolerant. Planted in masses outdoors or in wide pots, its lush green leaves form a sheet of vivid green that people love.

February orchid has strong adaptability and can grow from Northeast China, North China to East China and Central China. In winter, if it encounters wind, frost, rain or snow, the leaves will suffer frost damage to varying degrees, but in early spring it will sprout new leaves, bloom and set seed.

February orchid produces small purple flowers that open successively from bottom to top, blooming continuously from February to May or June. Especially when planted in groups, it looks like a sea of blue-purple. Planted by riversides, sea embankments, with green leaves, seas of flowers, blue sky and seawater interwoven together, it is very spectacular.

February orchid has very strong reproductive capacity, and a single sowing can form its own colony. Each year from May to June it sets seed, letting it fall into the soil on its own, and in September small tender seedlings will grow, blooming and setting seed the following year, continuing year after year. Of course, at home, you can choose a relatively wide flower pot and plant it in masses for an even better ornamental effect.
