    Default Dendrochilum wenzelii

    Just for Tim(Bench72)!
    For years, I could not bloom this species and I almost gave up on it. In 2008, it fianally sent up just a dozen of spikes for the first time. This year(spring 2009), it had 120+ spikes.
    This species will test your patience. Keep it moist year round and bright light(2500FC). Don't over pot this species. Sometimes, it doesn't bloom for you because you over-pot it. My plant is in CHC mix and it has been in that 6" basket for at least 5-6 years, so that means I way over-potted this plant 5-6 years ago.
