Default Dendrobium Nobile Upin King 'Serenadei'

This is a recent purchase of mine...I may be regretting it later, but we'll see!

This guy smells so good - like lilac, but very spicey with some cinnamon in there. I don't really know how to explain it. I do love the flowers though.

Beautiful ! you won't regret it , not hard to grow and rebloom . I just stop the Fert in the fall about Halloween , but continue to water , they like to be pot bound . Once buds apprear resume the Fert. Mine don't get any kind of a cool down like some of the species types . Gin

Thanks Gin, thats good to know! Now, maybe, I won't hesitate to purchase these. I have always thought they were beautiful, but didn't know if I would get them to rebloom. I'll keep my fingers crossed!

My brain is getting two opposing signals. One says Dendrobiums are evil, the other say Dendrobiums are cool! Which one do I pick!!!!
Very very nice dendrobium Meredith!!!

I won't regret it if I can get it to bloom again, but my confidence has been renewed with everyone's comments on how to grow these I'm excited now. Not to mention, I rearranged my orchid growing area so that I have room for more! Yay

I will admit, it was a tossup on this guy - I'm not usually one for dendro's either, but this was just too beautiful to pass up!
