Blooming mine as well, I can't take credit of these, at least of one of them which I bought from Orchid show with multiple spikes.

Anyone ever smell Den. delicatum? One of the best scents I've ever smelled... Purty too...

All of the smaller stature plants I got from SVO’s 2024 offering have bloomed in the last month. I wish I’d taken pictures! Others are starting spikes now.

That should put on quite a show, actually all you’ve put up on this thread have been awesome.
I just hope one day I’ll have some permanate types in my yard, but I’ll just have to learn which types that can be in my 9a area.
When I started this post those pics with blooms at the end weren’t even up yet

San Diego has it's own growing zones... but it's essentially USDA zone 10. It rarely gets to freezing, mostly above 35 oF where I live.

I'd think you'd have to bring it indoors in zone 9a, when it does get below freezing. It's always a good idea to ask around what the locals grow in your area.

I really should get one from Andys... I've yet to smell these!

Looks well worth it.

Thank you Orchid Board! My second year trying to grow Dendrobium kingianum and feel it's already time to share. So I'm giving these 2 away to a friend to try growing them as well. Thank you for all your help and tips growing these!
