Orchid of the Day: February 14, 2025
Dendrobium kingianum 'Albert West'
This is a famous old-time variety of one of our favorite species, the very resilient Dendrobium kingianum. A superb compact plant for outdoor growing alongside Cymbidiums or Cattleya alliance.
To encourage flower spike production over the growth of keiki-foliage, kingianums do best sheltered from Winter rains, especially in very wet years. Not recommended as a house plant, unless nighttime Winter temperatures for the growing area are reliably in the upper 40’s and light is bright.
Established blooming-size divisions from our mother-plant, the single-flower spike plants offered here are much smaller plants than the one in the reference photo thumbnail.
Temperature Tolerant. March blooming. Species from Australia.
Prices start at: $30.00
Plus shipping and handling.
