  • It is not necessary to prune a Phalaenopsis orchid. Just remove any dead or damaged leaves and flowers to keep the plant healthy. Regular care, such as watering and feeding, is more important for healthy growth.

    The Phalaenopsis orchid needs regular water, but do not let the roots sit in water. Water the plant once a week and make sure the potting mix dries out slightly between waterings. Use lukewarm water at room temperature to prevent damage to the roots.

    The Phalaenopsis 'Christel 2' requires potting soil with a light structure that retains enough moisture. It is important to regularly check if the potting soil is not too wet or too dry. Use special orchid potting soil for the optimal growth of this plant.

    For indoor plants, it is important to use a well-draining potting soil. Make sure the soil stays moist, but not too wet. A slightly acidic soil with some coarse material in it is ideal for healthy growth.
