my other Den. spectabile that took eons to finally bloom!
Here is my other Dendrobium spectabile that I bought 6 or 7 years ago. It's what originally got me into growing orchids. It's gotten so large and unruly that I've been neglecting it lately. Maybe that's what it needed to bloom.
I grow it outdoors until its about 55 at night, indoors during the winter. It seems to like it constantly wet as long as it's warm.
The blooms have a heady floral, honey fragrance that is nice.
