From April - September, this orchid needs water and fertilizer. Just be careful to not rot out the new growths. I have this plant mounted on tree fern fiber inside a plastic basket.
For six months out of the year, this orchid is nearly CARE FREE!

Dendrobium Anosmum
Pictures below are of "first blooms" on this plant. I purchased the plant as a seedling three years ago. The Dendrobium Anosmum likes a cool, dry winter. From October 2009 - March 2010, I did absolutely nothing to this plant. It hung under my peach tree all winter long. We had an unusually cold winter in South Florida this past year, one of the coldest since the 1940's. The plant suffered no damage and it has good blooms with a strong fragrance.
