I just bought my first den. - a Dendrobium Antennatum. It's a small plant, about 5 inches high. After a month of doing nothing it's growing two keiki's and maybe a new growth at a very fast rate. I use high level, filtered direct light. This plant gets about 5-7 hours of 3,000-3,500 fc of filtered direct light, then light drops to about 2,000 fc indirect. I keep the plant very moist in a pot with mostly small bark and a little sphagnum. I've put many holes in the pot so it dries out very quickly, preventing rotting conditions.
