3Habitat Setup

It's important to have the growing setup ready before your 蘭 arrives. Complete the setup in advance so you're not scrambling on arrival day.

Temperature Control

Prepare an environment that holds the proper temperature range for 蘭. A heater for winter or shading/greenhouse for summer may be needed.

Light

Secure appropriate sunlight for 蘭. Use a grow light if indoor light is insufficient.

Pot

Choose a pot suited to your 蘭's size and growth. Consider its mature size and root development as well.

Watering/Humidity

Prepare an environment that maintains the proper watering frequency and humidity for 蘭. Plan for saucers and a misting bottle.

4Arrival Day

Unboxing

Open the package as soon as your 蘭 arrives and check its leaves and roots. Open carefully to minimize stress on the plant.

Acclimation

Slowly bridge the gap between transit conditions and your growing environment. Sudden changes or direct sun stress your 蘭.

Moving to Its Spot

Once acclimated, move your 蘭 to the prepared spot.

Health Check & Confirmation

Verify your 蘭 is in good condition and press the "Confirm Arrival" button on GrowerDirect to complete the transaction.

5First Week Care

The first week is crucial for your 蘭 to adjust to its new environment. Watch for the following key points.

Days 1-2

Settling In

Let your 蘭 rest in a quiet spot with bright, indirect light. Hold off on repotting and strong direct sun to reduce stress.

Days 3-4

First Watering & Health Check

Start light watering while monitoring your 蘭's leaf turgor, color, and overall health.

Days 5-7

Establishing Routine

As your 蘭 settles in, begin regular care routines including watering, light management, and checking when to repot.

Important Notes After Arrival

If you notice any plant health issues during the first week, contact the grower immediately via messaging. Our support team can also assist before arrival confirmation.
