Another method to get the orchid to absorb the beneficial substances in aloe vera gel is to attach the leaf open to the plant with a piece of plastic or a rubber band. In this way it remains firm and rests on the stem and leaves. Das Aloe-Blatt sollte so lange belassen werden, bis das Gel getrocknet ist. Eine Vorsichtsmaßnahme, die beim Binden des offenen Blattes an der Pflanze zu beachten ist, besteht darin, es nicht zu fest anzuziehen, sondern es sanft zu binden, was die Orchidee nicht stört. Mit diesen Methoden werden die Pflanzen neue Wurzeln bilden, was dazu führt, dass sie eine üppige und üppige Blütenproduktion garantieren.
