Dendrochilum wenzelii Puts on a Show
This plant was outstanding last year but this year it is truly spectacular. There are more than 200 inflorescences of brick red flowers. The inflorescences are evenly displayed around the plant. The plant spans 24 inches across. The plant is in a 4-inch clay pot supported in a 6-inch square wood basket. The plant is grown under 50% shade and is fertilized weekly all year round.

Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately, our Orchid Shows on Oahu do not start until March. |

That's amazing. I've seen your other pictures of this plant from other years I guess and it blew my mind then, and did no different here!
