Dendrobium heterocarpum
orchids
Description
Dendrobium heterocarpum is a lovely orchid native to Southeast Asia and the Himalayas. It features attractive, pendulous stems and produces flowers that vary in color from white to yellow, often with a purple or red lip. The plant has long, slender pseudobulbs and lance-shaped leaves. This orchid benefits from bright, indirect light and good air circulation. The pseudobulbs drop their leaves during the dry season. Providing a cool, dry rest period in the winter will help to initiate flowering in the spring.
