Dendrobium chrysotoxum
orchids
Description
Dendrobium chrysotoxum, also known as the golden-flowered Dendrobium, is a beautiful orchid species native to Southeast Asia. It is prized for its cascading sprays of fragrant, golden-yellow flowers, often adorned with orange markings on the lip. The pseudobulbs are slender and can grow to a considerable length, bearing leaves along their length. Its leaves are lance-shaped and usually present. The plant appreciates bright, indirect light and good air circulation. Allowing the potting medium to dry slightly between waterings will help prevent root rot. Providing a cooler, dry period in winter can encourage flowering.
