Dendrobium pulchellum
Charming Dendrobium
Description
Dendrobium pulchellum, also known as the Noble Dendrobium or the 'Siam Jade' orchid, is a beautiful and fragrant orchid species. The pseudobulbs are slender and erect, with the flowers arising from the nodes. The most striking feature of this orchid is its exquisite flowers, which are usually white or pale pink with a prominent yellow lip. The lip is often fringed or frilly, adding to the flower's elegance. They are also prized for their delicate fragrance. Provide bright, indirect light and ensure good air circulation. Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the potting mix to dry out slightly between waterings, and reduce watering during the dormant period. Use a well-draining orchid mix to prevent root rot and encourage healthy growth.
