How do I save my Dendrobium
 

I bought a dendrobium from an orchid farm near Oceanside that was doing well until very recently. Nothing changed, but it has been starting to die. The root system is in terrible shape, all brown. Some of the canes are shriveling and I have several keikis with early roots. I repoted in bark, separated, keep very humid with a humidifier, and sits in a good window. It has always lived in this window and is a few years old. The window faces East with window sheers. I usually soak water once every week, but it is not improving. I make sure to let it get dry between waterings. My Phale is doing so well, but I fear I am losing my dendrobium. Even worse, I am in the middle of moving. I currently live in the desert near San Bernardino and moving to the coast. Help!

Welcome to the Orchid Board!

Dendrobiums need different care from some other kinds of orchids, and different kinds of Dendrobiums differ in care. Do you know which kind of Dendrobium it is? I can't get the photos to display.

All Dendrobiums need to stay moist while making new growth from the base, and not dry out. In a hot San Bernardino window you might need to water every other day to keep them moist enough while making new growth. I suspect this is your problem.

I can't see the photos either.
It says the page has not been found but invites the visitors to look at other of your albums.

Ok, I am trying again. It seems I accidentally made the board secret. When I bought the orchid I was not told which kind of Dendrobium.

Can't say if it's dry or not...but the symptoms are there. The problem is that those symptoms are the same if you were overwatering and roots were rot.

Can you find some photos of the flowers in google?

This is what the flower look like. Probably not this color.

I'm not an expert on these dens but, looking at the flower, it seems to be a phal den (Dendrobium Phalaenopsis).
Let's see what others have to say about it.

I remembered I had a picture of the original. They seem different then I thought. I have to admit I have a terrible memory and I have not seen the flowers in quite some time. Thank goodness this was a special day so I had a pic of when they were new!

Ah...it's a dendrobium nobile.
You must water it heavely as you see new growths appearing at the base of the canes. Never let it dry out.
No you have new growths at the base of the canes or just at the middle?

Also a photo of the roots would be great (assuming you use transparent pots). These guys like to be root bound, in small pots.

I don’t have transparent pots. I was not able to find any at the time I repotted and could not order online. I am not at home, but what you see on the top is pretty much what you see beneath. I will try to take more pictures within the hour.
