However, Dendros, one of my FAVORITE of all, this family has thousands of different ones, mini, small, medium large, such a difference in blooms! I wish they were actually not so big, because I don't have more space for them, I would have hundreds:-) Regarding the care, and winter rest, will see, this is the first year I am actually doing proper rest, but if it is not Dendros, than it is Catasetums with their growing cycle, or Habenaria with tubers, etc. So, It does not bother me much, actually less work for me for a few months:-)))

Yes Tommy I know which is what makes orchids so wonderful there are so many kinds one for everyone.

I just think it's strange that I like the blooms of them but am not sure I want them. I think it is the plant itself I don't like. But like you say there are so many different kinds of them. Who knows I may have one yet.

I hardly ever go to the Den section.
