Little Chinese Dens recommendations?

[Hazeldazel]

I am growing my orchid collection indoors in two Milsbo cabinets with a few of these little dens, and want some more! Please enable me with some recommendations of ones I should check out!

I currently have:
* D. bensoniae
* D. fanjingshanense
* D. jinghuanum
* D. shixingense

They are great because they stay little but have good-sized colorful blooms.

Some I'm looking at are D. xichouense, D. guangxiense (syn. scoriarum) and D. huoshanense. I saw that Tropical Exotique has the xichouense which is verrrrry tempting!

I really hope these guys become popular in the next several years because they are PERFECT for people growing in cabinets or windowsills.

I see that Roberta has a few of these, I hope she can chime in on how they work for her! (I'm not sure how to tag a person on this board)

Take a look at Announcing Hengduan Mountains Biotechnology website

You may have missed the window for orders on this round (but maybe they'll still accept some).

D hekouense / fuscifaucium / wangliangii

D peguanum (but that is more India/Thailand)

All mini miniatures

I'll definitely be following this thread to see other suggestions. I've also become fond of these little dendrobiums from this area of the world.

I have, all doing well:
Den chapaense
Den hekouense (Andy's orchids also a source)
Den scoriarum
Den serratilabium
Den xichouense

By the way, Den bensoniae may not stay small... mine is pretty big!

Also check out Epigeneium ... Egm. nakaharae blooms several time a year. Annual but still really nice, Egm. fargesii, Egm. triflorum, Egm. clemensiae. (They're lumped into Dendrobium now. I'm not changing my tags)

Roberta, thank you sooooo much for the rec to Hengduan! Wow, they got a LOT of cool stuff! I have never heard of Epigeneium so thank you for the enabling! Wow, your bensoniae is amazeballs!
