Den. farmeri in bloom

[Leslie]

Bloom colours like my Dendrobium amabile, which hasn't bloomed in 2-3 years. Trying every method: cool nights, dry rest, bright sun, also watering a bit more.... No luck yet. Hopefully this year!

Great blooms btw!!

thanks-on behalf of my friend

I looked at Den. amabile in OrchidWiz. Very similar looking to the farmeri but sounds a bit more demanding to grow. it is quite a cool grower, even in summer and still cooler in winter. I found it interesting that rainfall is light to moderate in summer the heavy rains start in early fall to early winter. It only has a slightly drier period in late winter. Hope that might help.
