    Default Dendrobium amboinense

    My amboinense startet to bloom the first time .
    I´m very exiting and I´m looking in the morning for 6 a.m

    I think ,wonderful ,nearly open and I want to make pictures in the afternoon ,after my date by a dentist .

    But what I must see ? at 3 p .m. the blooms are withered

    I have take one off it and crimp it on the table .
    Here is the picture , and next year I want to look out the whole day
    to see this bloom in complete bloomed

    It bloomes only for a few hours
    but I don´t know that

    It looks like it would have been beautiful!
    It says online that the blooms are short lived but that's really very short,
    just like a vanilla bloom ....
