Pendant dendrobiums? Male
Default

I have and am growing a number of upright growing Dens in a recumbent position.
They almost always want to try coming more upright. Sometimes they can't over come the weight of the PB, sometimes they can.
Assuming that you're growing indoors, follow the recommended watering regimen, don't water late in the day or at night. Keep good air circulation so that the flowers are dry before the cooler evening temps set in.

Mine are outdoors in a high rainfall climate. Continual night and day rains do not seem to affect the flowers adversely. Which leads me to think that good air circulation is more important than protecting them from cooler night temps.

What with all the naturally recumbent and pendant growing Dend, why try to force one that doesn't want to to do so?
Having said that, I do find myself often trying to encourage my upright growers into a more recumbent position.
