My mom just got back from Florida and she brought me this orchid as a present. It was potted in soil and when I was cleaning off the roots to repot it, it separated its self into two plants. This is my first Dendrobium and any help in identifying it and hints on care would be lovely. Also any idea if it's the type that needs a winter rest?

Thank you.

Beautiful den. What a nice gift. And a two for. How lucky.
I have a couple of dens like this. Give it bright light, no direct sun and no winter rest although you may want to slow down the watering some during the winter.
If it is like mine it will bloom on new growths.
Good luck and keep us posted.

I agree with Mike, it doesn't need a winter rest since it's a phal type den. Very nice blooms, the color is so nice!

Thanks for the help, Mike and Camille. I would have hated to have done something to kill this lovely Dend.
