dendrobium caesar java candy, first den.

[vpsihop@hotmail.com]

so Seattle orchids had an "as is" sale. picked up a few plants including a dendrobium caesar java candy.

cant really find its parentage, but i think its a phal type due to its leaves and where i see the old cut spikes.

any advise on care?

i watered it today. its in a bright spot and its in a tiny pot, needs new media. any recommendations?

Care instructions on their website: bright, warm, dry between waterings.probably needs a small pot.

Orchid Wiz lists Den. Caesar and Den Caesar Candy with the later being the Phaly type in terms of flower shape yet the former contains it in the background:
Java Candy could be its cultivar name:
Den Caesar = (Den. phalaenopsis x Den. stratiotes)
Den. Caesar Candy = (Den. Caesar x Den. Candy Stripe) good luck
