Looks amazing! I love the bulbous canes! Even leafless, it is interesting! I just got one a seedling a couple days ago. Any advice for a new D. pendulum grower?

Congrats on getting one.

My cultural experience:

Light: bright light like cattleyas and almost vanda 2500-3000 fc. West and south windows great.

Watering: daily spraying on mount in summer (drench once a week and heavy feeding when growing) aka never dry in summer when growing; in winter I keep spraying sunny days but let dry a couple days in between even as flowers appear in winter. So never dry long periods

Winter rest: spray lightly daily on sunny days on roots; no spray on cloudy days; no fertilizer during this period even when in bloom in winter.

Potting: best mount on cork with NZ spagnum moss at roots. If potted, bark mix with perlite to keep air at roots.

Fertilizer: I use fish emulsion, seakelp and super thrive every other watering during growing summer season

Temperatures: warm in spring and summer; winter should drop to 13-15C at night to do well

Hope this helps.

Mine is budded up and the buds are getting bigger by the day...shouldn't be too much longer now.


Shannon - I think you should get one. You will love it! Plus, it likes it drier in the winter so your "desert" would be perfect for it. I know because I have a desert in the winter too. I water it maybe 2x a week in the dead of winter.

Stop it, stop it now. I am trying not to get any new ones just yet. But just look at those canes!

I will say I have really been thinking about these that take a dryer winter as they would be so much easier to take care of

Take the jump NPM. The seed has been planted in your head. Resistance is futile!!
