Temperatures Orchys morioPosizione mezza ombra
These plants prefer very bright places, but we should avoid direct sunrays, especially during the hottest days of the year. Locate this plant in a partially shaded place, where it is exposed to solar rays during the coolest hours of the day.Let's grow the the Orchys morio outdoors; they can bear very harsh minimum temperatures, even when many degrees below zero.

Feed Orchys morio
Let’s avoid fertilizing our orchids during flowering; during the spring let’s act every 20-25 days, using a specific fertilizer, avoiding to leave fertilizing solutions in direct contact with the roots for too long.

Care Orchys morio
The development is erect, they tend to grow both in height and in width, giving origin to a rounded shrub. These plants are shrubs. This plant in the summer assumes a purplepinkwhite colouring; it is medium in size and can reach 50 cm high. It doesn't keep its leaves in the winter.

Irrigation Orchys morioTenere asciutto
We suggest watering the the Orchys morio every 1-2 weeks with 1-2 glasses of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water. Orchids in general favour a pretty moist soil; to water correctly it is advisable to water these plants by immersion, therefore soaking the containers in water up to the edge; when the water has reached the top part of the substratum we can take out the vases and let the excess water drain well.

Adversity Orchys morio
A treatment based on mineral oil or insecticide should be applied only in cases of infesting by parasites, paying attention not to vaporize the flowers.

Substrate Orchys morio
Cultivate in a very well drained soil.
