These will definitely stay alive outdoor in California winter. lol
You can keep them indoor with little light during the winter if you don't have window space.
It's not the best way to go, but better than nothing if you want to grow these.
What I did once in the past was that I would keep the plant very dry, maybe once a month watering, and the plant stay green and with no wrinkles on the canes all winter long.
As soon as the weather permits, you can take them out and water and they will grow new canes and flower in the fall again.

I know what you mean.
I had some big ones or ones that were getting too big and had to dump out.
My dream greenhouse would be full of big dendrobiums and oncidiums!
This one is small, standing only about one foot, yet the flowers are about the largest I've seen on this type of hybrid.
