Dendrobium Unium
 
4 Attachment(s)
This is my Dendrobium unium:biggrin::hello. It just started blooming about 5 days ago and still has a hand full of buds. The flowers are fragrant. The smell is a mix between apricots, peaches and baby's breath. It enjoys a cool and dry winter rest. I started soaking every other day once the spikes started to appear and everyday once new canes started to grow.

Very nice. Does it need less water more sun in winter?

Exactly. When it started to bud i called Andy's ( Andy's Orchids, where i purchased it from) and asked it i should lower the light level now that it was starting to bud and he said "no. never lower the light". So i didnt.
I will eventually lower the light level in summer or if i start to see leaf burn.
