Year-round flowering of orchids depends not only on watering and temperature conditions.

Some gardeners call this flower capricious. There are reasons for this, because the orchid requires special conditions.

But there is one simple method that will make the plant release its first buds faster.

This trick has long been used by many housewives who have entire groves of blooming orchids on their windowsills.

They achieved such results thanks to the fact that they know one feature of tropical plants. Orchid loves humid air.

To bring the conditions of the flower closer to natural, gardeners place a jar filled with water next to the pot. The liquid will gradually evaporate, bringing the air closer to what the orchid is used to.

After such a trick, the plant will definitely please with flowering, and with regular watering and fertilizing, the process will last all year round. If you have a humidifier, then there is no need for jars.
