Very exotic and these blooms last six to eight months, Wow! Are these Dendrobiums uncommon or rare here in the U.S.?

The New Guinea Oxyglossums are not the easiest orchids to find here in the US partly because they require cool temperatures and because they are a bit finicky. Violaceum, however, is one that is just a bit easier to find.

Hi Tom,
It gets down to about 55-60 at night during the winter and about 65-70 during the winter.
