I doubt it, he cannot keep anything alive unless I call and tell him what to do exactly. Anyway, my plan regarding this Love Memory den is to sell to someone else as it is getting a little too big for me.

I am going to start over with one of the new ones (two mature canes at the most) I bought this year.

they grow so well and so much! :)

Picture update
 

As of last weekend, Oriental Smile Fantasy opened up, and this past weekend, Love Memory began to open.

Yellow Song is still in bud.

I'm posting pictures of OS and LM.

OS looks nothing like what it should look like, but I hope the real color kicks in sooner or later.

:D

Looks like they will be gorgeous in full bloom!!:)

Keep us updated with new photos as they bloom.

I will! :)

Looks like you will certainly have a healthy blooming! Lots of buds on that Oriental Smile.

Yellow Song Canary in bloom finally!
 

Very pale yellow at first but the deep golden yellow should set in over time.
Not that many buds this year, but still look pretty nice.

I will soon post some good picture of the other two as well.

Enjoy! :)

Glorious blooms!
 

on my Oriental Smile "Fantasy", which is my favorite nobile den. All the buds are open now and the real color kicked in, looking amazingly beautiful to me. I love the color and the scent of this plant.

This picure was taken this morining, but came out rather fuzzy. I will take better ones soon.

Yellow Song "canary" is not bearing that many flowers at all this year. Maybe it will grow a few canes this year and produce many flowers next spring.

More picture update
 

So finally today, I brought two of my three nobile dendrobiums back from their winter resting place at my friend's.

My friend wanted to keep Love Memory, so I left that one as a gift, which had four canes loaded with flowers.

Yellow Song's performance is nothing like last years, but the size of individual flowers is much larger. I wonder if that comes with the condition of winter rest. Actually, all three dendrobiums had increased flower size.

Oriental Smile Fantasy is my absolute favorite. It is almost hypnotic!!! so tall and that is a little bit of issue for me. (tips over easily)

Ok, enjoy the pictures, everyone! :D

After close examination of my Oriental Smile Fantasy, I found a few littls bumps on the top three nodes. I think for some reason, the plant decided to make some more flowers, but it is out of chilling period now, so I wouldn't be surprised if they end up as keikis.

There are some more bumps toward the lower part of the cane as well. The older cane that flowered last season is bearing one spike with three buds.
This guy has a funny habit.
