Caring for displayed Phal
Still a newbie, I have my first flowers to be displayed in the house.
They are potted in clay, how often should I water this plant and should I still fertilize, if so any special requirements. Regards Curtis |

Caring for displayed Phal
Curtis,
Display the plant in low light (out of direct sun) to keep the flowers from burning. Water when the plant gets dry! Everyone's house is different and weather conditions will determine how often you water. If you live in hot dry Arizona you will water more often than here in the DC area were we have had rain everyday for a month and had very little sunlight. Since the plant may be out of the normal growing location (dining room table or other living areas) and have reduced light you may not need to water as you would normallly. I generally don't fertilize the plants that are on display in the house (because I'm too lazy). If they remain in the greenhouse they get the regular fertilizer applications. It won't hurt the plant to skip fertilizing for a few weeks while you enjoy the flowers. Good growing, Gene "TheBoss" wrote in message ...
