Tips for growing Dendrochilum willamsii
 
Hi there everyone. I finally purchased my first Dendrochilum. Was wondering if anyone had experience and subsequently, tips on growing Dendrochilum willamsii. Any info would be much appreciated as this is a new orchid for me. Will it do okay in the house,(average about 75 degrees F)? I have a north or south window available although I can grow it outside if that would be better. Anyway, thanks in advance and no tidbit would go unappreciated.

I haven't grown it. Dendrochilums need to stay very moist. They are dwellers of wet, mossy forests. I suspect one day of Santa Ana winds outdoors would be fatal.

There is a Species Orchid Society in Orange County. Somebody there might be of more help.

Thanks for the info, that seems to jive what I've been reading about Dendrochilums in general. I know all too well of the killer Santa Ana's 😥😟
