Smile Learned Something New Today

Today I learned that one of my dens I thought was a nobile is actually a nigro-hirsute type. I guess that explains all that black hair on the canes! I'm such a novice I just assumed because it bloomed the same way a nobile does that that's what it was.

   

Looks like I have a pretty big learning curve when it comes to dens.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

A hairy dend...news to me...so we are in the same boat. Glad I did not have one of those I would have looked like a real stunod (sp) trying to wipe the sucker clean or putting Nair on it.
