Care input Dendrobium King Zip ‘Red Splash’

[chantrelle]

I just bought my firt Dendrobium a few days a go.

Dendrobium King Zip ‘Red Splash’ (Den. Kathking x Den. Zip), it as a lot of Dendrobium kingianum in it. A friend showed me how to look at the The International Orchid Register to find out genus.

Therefore, I know it will like to be allowed to dry between watering. However, right now it has little buds.

What are the cares that I should give to make sure the buds don’t dry ? Do I need to water a little more during this periode ?

Here is the little one
