Dendrobium Fuchs Blue Twist x Compactum x Lasianthera
This mini Dendrobium hybrid features bluish-tinted violet flowers atop an oval swollen cane like stem. Like some of the Dendrobium hybrids, this plant blooms without the leaves falling off at the end of the dry season.
I follow the Baker’s culture for dendrobiums and give this lots of shaded bright light watering and fertilizer regimen slightly less in winter and full force in summers…this is a tiny plant from seedling 3 yrs. old and the flower form didn’t come out perfect maybe because I thought to give it a slight dry spell…now I know that this plant does not need a rest period.
