Just wanted to share my Den. Primulinum! Purchased last summer from Orchids By Hausermann. Had it outside until it got cold then moved it to the coldest room in the house for it's dry winter rest. Now we have blooms

Congrats on the blooms! These winter resting Dens can be quite tricky to provide the necessary conditions for blooming.

Nice! I don't have much luck with Den nobile types as I can't really give them a winter rest. However, I have a nice Dendrobium "Microship" which I suspect is part Den kingianum that has been in bloom for awhile.

I also have a Den. Micro Chip x Nida Stripes that I have not gotten to bloom yet. It's going into it's second growing season with me. Hopefully it will bloom this year.

My den microchip was in spike when I bought it as a small plant and has bloomed a couple of times a year since then and is now a bigger plant. Currently it has 4 spikes and several flowers on each. I don't know what I am doing right but I'm not complaining. Still can't get the bigger dens to rebloom though. I'm mostly a windowsill grower and can't give them a cool winter rest.
