Orchids are plants admired for their elegance and beauty, but getting them to bloom consistently can be a challenge. In this article, we reveal a natural and inexpensive trick shared by experienced growers: a simple ingredient that, when placed under your orchid, encourages abundant and long-lasting blooms.

Necessary Materials

• 1 ripe banana peel (rich in potassium and phosphorus)
• Warm water (500 ml)
• Blender or mortar

Step-by-Step Procedure

1. Prepare the natural fertilizer

• Cut the banana peel into small pieces.

2. Apply to the orchid
