Den. Griffithianum care

[Palito]

Hi guys.

what is the typical care for a den. griffithianum. Do they have to go dry all winter like those other dendrobiums?

No dry out , really a neat plant, fun to grow it does not drop it's leaves at all , grows fairly fast .. Hope this helps . Gin

thanxs Gin!.

i got the plant by mistake in april, and its bloomed twice already after losing several leaves due to sunburn. I was thinking of giving it away if its too difficult to care.

Same as densiflorum? Those should be given the winter rest, or at least a greatly reduced watering so that they are dried out between waterings.
