I've always wanted to try and grow an orchid. My son just gave me a
Dendrobium
World Cup #2. It is breath taking.
Can someone please tell me how to care for it?
I couldn't find any information when I googled the name that was on the
tag that came with it.
I just couldn't bare it if it dies from improper care.

My Sincere gratitude.

You are aware these things are habit forming? This is an addiction that
can't be cured. You will find advise here but your location is important.
I would also google "dendrobium care" for a start.

Habit forming? I was innocently watching HGTV last January when they did a
spot on Orchids - I now have 22.

Welcome to the group! There are loads of sites that will provide information
to help you care for your new acquisition. You might want to start with this
one:

www.firstrays.com Go to the 'Free Information' section.

Ray Barkalow is a frequent contributor to this group, and his web site is
full of useful information and is quite user friendly. If you have more
questions, feel free to ask. And by the way, Bob told you the truth - nobody
ends up with just one orchid, LOL! They sneak into your house while you
sleep, and take up residence for life.

It is a-- Dend. nobile-- hybrid. Google --Dendrobium nobile-- , and
you should get lots of useful information.


www.carterandholmes has a very good, concise description of their
culture.

Hope this is helpful.
