Dendrobium rigidum, hangs around the greenhouse & does it's thing.
Strangely, the flowers are all on the one side of the plant which was facing NNW ? It is in a 4inch basket. Cheers Wendy |

Very impressive Wendy. My plant died last year and now that I see your
photos it reminds me that I must get another one. Cheers John "Wendy7" wrote in message ... Dendrobium rigidum, hangs around the greenhouse & does it's thing. Strangely, the flowers are all on the one side of the plant which was facing NNW ? It is in a 4inch basket. Cheers Wendy |

Would that have anything to do with minimum light?
As an associated interesting observation, one of our members grows his smaller Dockrillias & Dendrobes of a similar growth habit (eg toressae, prenticei) on mounts which are hung from swivels - the cheap fishing line type. The mount rotates with air movement (or owner movement) & the plant grows completely round the mount. Makes a lovely display when in bloom, & has taken out some cultivation prizes at our benchings.

Thanks Dave, Will try using a swivel & I happen to have some that I use for
my Tillandsias. Cheers Wendy "Dave Gillingham" wrote in message ... Would that have anything to do with minimum light?

If you use a swivel, does this cause the plant to use more energy realigning
itself to the available light source every time it turns (phototropism)? Does this lead to a really mixed up plant? Just curious. Cheers John "Wendy7" wrote in message ...

And the plant cried, as its head spun around, "Stop the whirl, I want to get
off!!" Diana (punning for cover) "John Varigos" wrote in message om...
