Thank You, Discus ! You need not be cruel...it is an equatorial plant and I just on my own decided to give it cool temps in winter...but I dont think they have winter in Thailand.

Bud - Peter Lin is not from SVO, he is from Big Leaf Orchids and deals mostly in Phals. SVO is owned and operated by Fred Clarke.

I know that Glen...but a couple of my SVO plants I acquired had Peter Lin email me the culture...maybe he is working with Fred on the mini catts...I also got some stuff from him on Big Leaf Orchids...
Peter Lin is also selling on Ebay as Diamond Orchids...mini Catts; mini Bulbos and I saw this very plant Dendrobium unicum on sale seedling blooming size ending in 2 days...

@Glen...heres my latest communications with the Peter T. Lin I know is an AOS judge...from SVO in California...the Peter Lin you were referring to is from Texas:

I am not with Big Leaf Orchids, that is a different Peter Lin. He is from Texas.
I have been working with Fred for about 8 years. I manage his ebay store, and also list on Ebay with my own plants. You can search listings beginning with DO.

When you say that your dend. unicum is mounted on a small branch, did you use moss? I got one three months ago. When flowers died i knew it would go dormant. It lost most of its leaves and parts seemed dead and loose. It is in a small plastic pot in mix of spag and bark. Wish i knew how to show a pic to you

I dont grow this plant mounted. I grow it potted in a small(seedling) mix of bark, charcoal, lava rock, sponge rock and tree fern shards. But I told fishmommy that she can have this kind of plant mounted because she asked me if she can plant it mounted.
The flowers this year did not merit posting since I merely got two flowers. I must give it proper winter rest this time to have beautiful flowers. This year I only got keikis.
