Dendrobium Iki

[e-spice]

This is an interesting primary hybrid of bellatulum and cruentum. Seems to like the S/H environment. It tends to have several rounds of blooms starting about now and ending in late spring.

Since you're doing so well w/ dendrobiums maybe you can help me. Someone in my building knows I grow orchids because they left 2 dendrobiums at my door. They have new leaves and growths but, how do I know whether to water/fertilize them or hybernate them?

Water and feed dends when the new growths show... always give plenty of light.. rest when the new pseusonuls matures and can be left drier until next season's new growth starts to show...
