GENERAL INFORMATION

  • Native to Southeast Asia, the genus Dendrobium is one of the largest of all orchid groups.
  • There are about 1,200 individual species, and they grow in all manner of climates, from hot, wet lowlands to high-altitude, colder mountains.
  • Growers usually divide dendrobiums into groups based on their growing conditions.
  • All dendrobiums are epiphytes, meaning that they grow on other plants.
  • In nature, they grow on the branches of trees. Some are deciduous and some hold onto their leaves all year round.

SOIL REQUIREMENT

  • Orchids don't grow in soil, but rather in a special mixture that mimics their environment in the wild.
  • Purchase a commercial orchid potting medium, which contains peat moss, perlite, or fir bark, or make your own that has these ingredients in it.
  • Make sure that the "soil" has aeration and is well-draining, so the roots aren't left in moisture for a lengthy period of time.

FEEDING/FERTILIZER REQUIREMENT

  • Feed heavily during the growing season with a weak fertilizer solution containing lots of nitrogen, or use a balanced fertilizer (20-20-20) at quarter-strength with every watering.
  • At the end of the growing season, reduce fertilizer by about half to help provoke a better bloom.

LIGHT REQUIREMENT

  • These plants like strong, natural sunlight.
  • They will grow in lower-light conditions, but it is unlikely the plant will bloom well.
  • The appearance of keikis often means the plant isn't getting enough light.
  • On the other hand, if you see yellow leaves you may have given the plant too much direct sunlight.

WATER REQUIREMENT

  • During the growing season, dendrobiums like high humidity and lots of water.
  • As with all orchids, the frequency of watering depends on your growing conditions, but at least weekly is a good idea during the summer.
  • Don't leave them in a tray of water as that can rot the roots.
  • After the growing season, cut water back somewhat (maybe every 10 days), but do not suspend watering.
