DENDROBIUM 'Blushing'
Rare bright white orchids with amazing orange blush on the lips and petals.
There are innumerable Dendrobium hybrids and these are almost always derived from species within one group, either Himalayan, Australian or from New Guinea.
Dendrobiums like plenty of bright filtered (indirect) sunlight but avoid direct sunlight that may harm the leaves. They can be difficult to re-flower if they do not receive sufficient light.
Moist air is essential for dendrob. The humidity can be increased by placing the plant on a tray of moist gravel or pebbles (indoor) and spraying a mist of water above the plant once a day preferably in the morning. 60-70% humidity is ideal |
