Dendrobium stuartii
Orchids
Description
Dendrobium stuartii is a beautiful orchid species, hailing from the Philippines. It's known for its long, slender, and often pendulous stems. The flowers are striking, typically displaying a combination of yellow or cream petals and sepals with a contrasting reddish-brown lip. These orchids bloom in clusters along the stems, creating a cascade of color. This species thrives in warm, humid conditions, often needing bright, indirect light. For cultivation, use a well-draining orchid mix, allow the plant to dry slightly between waterings, and provide good air circulation. These orchids can be propagated by division or from keikis that sometimes form on the stems.
