Hi, Does anyone have any feeding and care instructions on the Dendrobium
Orchid. I never had an orchid before. I want it to bloom again and don't
know how to take care of it. Thank you in advance, Rita

Rita,
I don't really know Dendrobiums, so others can help you more with that, but
here are a couple of links to the basic info:

http://aos.org/aos/uploadedfiles/doc...eddendrobe.pdf
Also, to search for more information, you can use the search terms
Dendrobium "culture sheet" or Dendrobium water light fertilizer and humidity
(since these terms are bound to be mentioned in a culture sheet).
Hope this helps,
Joanna

Dear Rita: Most of the commonly-sold Dens are year-round growers. They
like 50% or more sun [some more than others], to dry out very thoroughly
between waterings, to be potted "snugly" [if the pot looks way too small for
the plant, it's probably about right], and to be fed lightly every 3rd or
4th watering.

If by chance you got one of the Dens that needs a winter rest, you do the
above in warm weather, but then cease feeding and cut way back on watering
in fall [whenever your temps start to drop], resume when you see buds or new
growth in the spring. Good growing,
