I've got this beauty like for 2-3 years now. It is actually the first Orchid I've taken good care of even though I had 2 more. It flowers every other month since I got it and its actually the one that's made me a Orchid addict. I'm a beginner but I love it, so I want to learn. Could you help me get its I'd. Thank you for your help.

It is a "Phalaenopsis type" Dendrobium, most likely a hybrid. Beyond that, it is hard to be more specific. The Phalaenopsis type" Dendrobiums are true Dendrobiums that have flowers which superficially resemble Phalaenopsis.

Cabo Rojo is a nice corner of Puerto Rico! I used to do some work in the Lajas, Mayagüez, Arecibo, Barceloneta and Humacao areas.

Hey Orchid Whisperer, that's nice. So you know about our special weather (extra hot 24/7), our beaches and calmed life most people wish to have. I live in Boqueron Rd, pretty close to all the beaches is in Cabo Rojo. I think that's what this beauty likes the weather. Do you live here in Puerto Rico or just come around for work? Wether you do or not try visiting our beaches
Thanks for the Id. It will help me learn more and take better care of it.

Most of my visits were work-related, but I have vacationed in Puerto Rico with my wife (and later with my wife and sons). My job has changed, so, sadly, no more work trips to Puerto Rico (maybe still some future vacations). I made some friends while working there, one of whom has recently moved here (to Georgia). Also, I have some Puerto Rican friends at my new office (even told one of them where to find a Puerto Rican bakery near Atlanta where they can find Tres Leches cake!)

Boqueron beach is one of the best in Puerto Rico! (Maybe _THE_ best?) Calm, white sand, blue water, quieter than anything close to San Juan! A great place for chilin’.

Just realized my third sentence in my original post should have ended " . . . superficially resemble Phalaenopsis."

I updated it.

Well hopefully anytime soon you'll have the chance for visiting. If yo do try going to Combate and Buye beach, beautiful places to go. You should also try Vieques, it's a small island that belongs to PR, so beautiful and nice it's almost paradise. There's also the best of our beaches of our island.
