    Beautiful!

    Gin how are you culturing your Den. thrysiflorium. I have not succeeded in blooming mine. I put mine into a cool, bright dry rest at the end of November. There it still remains

    Ron , Mine is in the greenhouse in a slat basket back from where the Vandas hang it gets bright light. I reduce the water on it in the fall but don't dry it out for days on end it really does not get a cool rest, well some , because of the normal Temp. shift but not like some of the other species Dends . When I saw little bumps starting I increased the watering . Hope this Helps ..
    Zain I would really like to see that cross sounds interesting Thanks to all for the comments .. Gin

    Thanks...I saw little bumps last year but they never progressed. I checked last week and no bumps this year.
