Distinguishing den types

[Dub3]

I have several noid den. And do not know how to distinguish between deciduous and non-deciduous types. If I'm correct the two types have different cultural requirements.

There are so many (abt 1000 species), that it is impossible to give some simple guidance. Most are grouped into categories (with different cultural requirements).

We need to see photos to help you assign the plants to probable categories. However, at that point there can still be variations for individual species (highland vs lowland, etc.).

Den. Amabile or thyrsiflorum I would say. It looks like a denrobium from the calista group.

Hello Dub3, at the top of this sub forum is a sticky note. It has two PDF files. Pull those two files into your PC/tablet. This has helped me deal with Dendrobium.

That one is a "hard cane" den. Looks to be a Den. bigibbum hybrid -- a non-deciduous chid.

Thank you very much, I have 7 more but the boards forum won't let me up load more than one at a time. As soon as I get that fixed I'll upload more.

Great it took my pictures. Now can anyone help me classify these plants so I can care for them?
