I purchased this nobile dendrobium last summer as a small seedling. It made one stout, healthy growth and produced only two flowers of very heavy texture. They are very nice. I can imagine what it will do in a few years.

Hi Jerry,
That is a beautiful dendrobium indeed!

Congrats to you for getting her to bloom.

I look forward to updated pics as she grows and produces more beauty. Thanks for sharing with us.

Purchased this healthy Den Red Emperor 'Prince' from Jerry at OrchidsAmore in April. The plant has a vigorous new cane growing (on right in photo - the red tape measure is 3 " for scale). So hope to have flowers this fall.
But the plant also has two very vigorous keikis growing on an older cane. Questions:

Should I try to remove the keikis at this time ?

If yes, how ?? They almost look like they would pop off the cane - but I'm sure some cutting will be required.

Thanks again for help !!
