Dendrobium faciferum
 
:waving
So, as I always say, I will take "just one bloom" any time! This was gift from Kevin, I got it in summer, and did not even expect it to bloom any time soon, was actually getting it slowly ready for the winter rest, but last week I saw one tiny red dot, and got really excited, and it actually did open today:-) It is mounted on tree fern, full afternoon sun:-)

Thanks Hector, Dendros are probably my favorite ones, and Bulbos. I got really huge collection of Dendros this year, so I can't wait for them to bloom for me:-) There are some awesome mini dendros that you should for sure check for you vivarium!

I love that color! Great growing!

TOMMYMIAMI 11-05-2013 09:51 AM

Yeah, for some reason the name faciferum reminds me world "luciferum", therefor something from the "hell", and the color is gorgeous red, like hell's fire:-)))))

Oh so pretty! Is this a miniature, or just a young plant? I have a hard time telling in photos.

I like the red-orange color and the form....it might give you more flowers so don't give up....after the flowers are gone then you may give it rest.

TOMMYMIAMI 11-05-2013 02:58 PM

Many thanks Bud, I am not giving up at all, I am more excited, I did not expect any bloom till next year after the rest, so this is nice mini tiny bonus:-)

RandomGemini, this is a division I received from Kevin in summer. It is not big, but when I did google, they can grow pretty decent size, definitely not miniature, but the one I have is not huge yet:-) The bloom is definitely definitely small now, but if it will grow, than the blooms will get bigger also:-)
