Dendrobium bigibbum hybrids

[toddybear]

A few unnamed cane dendrobiums I picked up over the years...all are flowering at the moment.

I love these, even though so many biggibum hybrids don't have names, or have something generic. But they are easy to grow and are so floriferous.

Todd what conditions do you give them??? They are very nice!!!

 

[toddybear]

Lots of sun...temp min in winter of 15 C with daytime 20 or so. They are quite hot in the summer months. I must admit, I keep these at my work greenhouse so they grow next to the Vanda. My house does not get enough light...oncidium alliance are the main ones I grow at home along with the slippers.

Thank you Todd!!!! Do you water the same all year round???

Those are lovely Todd! I especially like the last one with the deep purple in the center, it's stunning.

 

[toddybear]

I water regularly year-round.

Joanne, that two-tone one is quite compact...maybe 9"...I expect it has a lot of the variety compactum in its genes. The other two have canes close to 2 feet.

Quite impressive size!!! Thanks for the tips...
