4. Fill the pot to the top rim of the pot with the mix

ONGOING PLANT CARE

• A quality 6 month balanced fertiliser was added at manufacture but additional fertiliser may be required in time, depending on plant needs.
• Feeding is critical to flowering because without sufficient food, the plant’s bulbs will not grow large enough to flower in the following year.
• The easiest way to feed your Orchids is by topping up with controlled-release fertiliser when required. For even better results, you can supplement with a soluble fertiliser during the warmer months.
• Plants should be divided and re-potted with new potting mix when they outgrow the pot or after 24 months.

SAFETY TIPS
We recommend you always wear gloves when gardening. Wear a particulate mask if dusty.
