    Default Dendrobium Kingianum

    Some photos of D.Kingianum,best known and easiest to grow,sets no problems.
    I/C grower,min.t° +2°C or 35,6°F,fairly dry winterrest,I give 2 months no water,until inflorescences appear.
    Next flowering season,color change is possible,this one was originally purple.

    Interesting about the colour change. Can't grow it here as it is too warm for it.Beautiful blooms though.

    I also like the spotting that is so delicate and the near cup like shape. I only wish it was a warm grower. Al
