HELP PLEASE WITH DIFFERENT DENDROBIUMS - WINTER REST Male
Default HELP PLEASE WITH DIFFERENT DENDROBIUMS - WINTER REST


Hi guys, I need some help with my Dendrobiums. I have 4 amazing Dendrobiums at my balcony here in Miami. Dendrobium Anosmum, Dendrobium goldschmidtianum, Dendrobium bracteosum and Dendrobium (Dockrillia) wasselii. The last mentioned one, Dockrillia from Australia is doing awesome, growing like crazy and blooming every year at this time, I had already 6 stalks witinh last month. The other 3 not so much. They are growing great, but they do not bloom. Dendrobium bracteosum was in bloom when I got it, amazing orchid, bloomed for nearly 5 months. Than it had quite a few new growths, with nice green leaves over winter. Now pretty much lot of leaves fall and it has only few green leaves at the end of new growths, and lot of older growths that look dry or half dry. My Dendrobium Goldschmid grows extremely well, lot of new growths, green leaves, in between the leaves there are some brown spots in the last 2 months, but no blooming whatsoever. Dendrobium ansomum has 3 old growths, than it had one nice long one that grew since I got it last year, lost all the leaves, another new growth this year. lost again all the leaves by now, both of them are starying to have new growths from them now, and there are also 2 brand new green growths, but no blooms also. I did not quite understand what WINTER REST means, and I did water my anosmum and all others as well, less frequent than summer time, but regular watering once a week at least. Now I learned i have to leave this Dendrobium COMPLETELY WITHOUT ANY WATER OR MIST for the whole winter, like since november till february??? No water whatsoever?? Just want to make sure I do understand this correct. Also, is theer any other of my dendrobiums that required winter rest and no watering whatsoever??? I have also Dendrochilum filiforme, bloomed amazingly when I got it last year, since than it doubled in size, but now blooming this year, even it has lot of new growths. I did read somewhere this one should never dry out actually, but not sure if this apply to growing season or also winter? Please help me, I love dendrobiums, it just seems even they have great conditions here in Florida, I am doing something wrong Thanks for any help and detailed tips for each one.
