Den nindii never established well and it died. I had to start over with Den taurinum as well. I found out the hard way, that these were not as tolerant of cooler conditions as Den discolor was. It suffered quite a bit before giving up. I currently just acquired new seedlings of Den taurinum. In the near future, I'll be looking to do an Asian import from a Malaysian vendor. In this order, I may consider importing some of the Antelope Dens, idk. I have at least a couple interested in doing a group order with the Asian seller already. If you're interested, please let me know, so I can include you. Here're the current Dendrobiums in my collection: Dendrobium amabile Dendrobium bicaudatum Dendrobium discolor Dendrobium elliotianum Dendrobium hancockii Dendrobium gregulus Dendrobium kingianum Dendrobium lineale Dendrobium odiosum Dendrobium stratiotes Dendrobium taurinum |
I would be interested, thank you. I will PM you.

Wow, some of the lists are impressive. I love Dendrobiums, I just recently started to collect more of them, last year, and here is my little list:
Anosmum Goldschmidtianum Bracteosum Dockrillia Gatton Sunray Unicum Heterocarpum Parishii and than that regular white one from Home Depot that was my first and I have it for years and years but did lost the tag and not sure about the exact name:-) |
I have aprox 60-70 den species. At 1am I can't think of them all but here are some I can remember in no particular order.
Moniliformes(10 different types) nobiles( 4) loddigesii hancockii(2) Vic-reg longicirnu tobaense spectibile bellatulym Jacobsoni Prenticii Trantuai Jenkinsonii Reflexupetilum Lasianthera Unicom Lichenastrum Cuthbertsobii Lawesii Aggregatum pandiottii bracteosum( both pink and yellow form) Bracteosum x laevifolium chrysotoxum chrystianum( dwarf form) crumanatum lowii Dicheoides( regular and type 3 creeping form) garrettii Elliotianum Discolor Hasseltii kingianum lindleyii Alexandrae pierardii pseudolamellatum oreodoxa Olioglossum speciosa Mingles sapphire 4 Phal types There are some others but at 1 am and all my orchids are outside, it's a bit too dark to go check them out. I have killed a few, penguanum comes to mind. But it's my favorite species and I'll try just about any of them. |
How many Den species do you have?

Someone around here calls themselves the Oncidium killer, well, I'm not going to call myself the Dendrobium killer, but in the past, every Dendrobium that has found its way to my house has passed away.
However, now that I'm a little bit more knowledeable about Dendrobium -- thank you for that Orchid Board, I have started acquiring this plant. Den. spectabile--I bought this two months ago as a Lowes Bag Baby. It is thriving and has produced a small new cane. Den. species Tanchouzuru 丹頂鶴. This is a very small plant, it looks good even without a flower. I'm growing it like Neofinetia. That is my Dendrobium list. I have ordered five more Den. monilliforme. |
Well, my list is pretty short:
aggregatum kingianum no-ID hybrid My wish list, however, is far longer--you people are BAD influences.... Catherine |
Without the primary & other hybrids, not as many as I thought. I'm growing:
scabrilingue laevifolium christyanum (aka margaritaceum) cuthbertsonii compot At least, I hope I'm growing them. They're all pretty recently acquired. If I sneak in my primary hybrids, which it looks like I'm about to do, I've got: bracteosum x laevifolium (hibiki) cuthbertsonii x psuedoglomeratum cuthbertsonii x lawesii lowii x bellatulum (does this cross have a name?) also a few complex hybrids, but only one that I'm very excited about: Lori Tokunaga x Lime Frost. |
I don't seem to be doing well with Dens just now. The NoID's which were doing well a few years ago have gone downhill or died, I have a couple of new ones to see if I can do better with them.
Species wise I have a loddigesii but that's never done well. This thread has only just prompted me to realise I seem to have a Den problem in general :hmm |
