Dendrobium spectabile
Introducing the captivating Dendrobium spectabile, a must-have for any orchid enthusiast with a penchant for the unique and unconventional! Native to the lush landscapes of New Guinea and its surrounding islands, this orchid boasts an unparalleled charm with its funky flowers that are sure to steal the spotlight in any collection. While it may not adhere to traditional notions of orchid beauty, the Dendrobium spectabile is a true gem for collectors and conversation starters alike. Its blooms, though not conventionally pretty, possess an undeniable allure, drawing admirers with their distinctiveness. What sets this orchid apart is its demanding yet rewarding care requirements. Unlike its counterparts, the Dendrobium spectabile thrives on higher levels of light, even tolerating full sunlight for extended periods. During the growing season from April to October, it craves more water and fertilizer to fuel its growth, although a reduction in both during late fall and winter is essential. P
