Dendrobium species

I am not sure which dendrobiums I should not water during the winter rest period. I have "Kingianum" , "Lodigesii" , "Speciosium" and "Yellow Magic".

Any advice would be welcome. Thanks, Barry C

Cirropetallum

Jeremy, This is best grown in a hanging basket where the flowers can penetrate the sides or base. Grow it in sphagnum moss or a mixture of moss and bark.
