I just acquired a Green Lantern Den that is in this "black hair" group from
the raffle table at our OS meeting. 2 old blooms left, i didn't think much
till i got it home and started reading up on it. 3 canes on this one- don't
know how big it gets, only that It will bloom 2x a year and the bloom is
nice- the fragrance has faded

A noble type which is new for me- it is sitting in a s/e window where it
gets a few hours morning sun. Still with blooms , so I'm not repotting. I
get confused as to which Dend needs to rest, & temp requirements- I'm just
grouping all the Dends together on the windowsill where they can get some
sun and less watering, and keep from falling over- need a better pot I think
& will start using plant tags to label plant care

Gene,

I have loads of Dends, and one of the hirsute varieties, Hiroshi
Tokunaga
(D. infindibulum x D. Dawn Marie), which is currently in bloom. Your
description of the flower is perfect! I got this at the Ft. Lauderdale
show
about three years ago. It has thrown off a couple of keikis which have
yet
to bloom.

The majority of my Dends are in rock or aliflor, but this one seems to
care
more for a CHC based mix.

I'll see if I have a photo on my disk, to post on abpo. If not, I'll
try
to
get at the camera tomorrow.
