Latouria type Dendrobium hybrids
I just love this group of Dendrobiums, they are easy to care for, bloom freely and with tons of flowers that seem to last for ever. Here are just a few of my favorites that are in bloom now.

Thanks guys, I'm surprised that more people don't grow them.

Nice ones, Glen ! Nora Tokunaga was one of my favorites as well as Andree Millar ! I have atroviolaceum left but am giving it to a better home at this month's meeting. It looks like I've drifted over to the Dendrobium type section with moniliforme, and unicum hybrids ! I'm struggling (AGAIN) with a Formosae type = tobaense, my wassellii grows nice, my loddigesii went nuts withs buds for the first time BUT they turned into keikis and now I have them everywhere ! Oh well (original Fleetwood Mac), Que sera sera (The King and I) !!!

I'm beginning to become very interested in the Latouria section. Very easy to grow and bloom under my conditions but haven't done my homework to find hybrids. Any suggestions?

Chryss - don't get me wrong, as much as I enjoy the hybrids, I love the species.
