dendrobium damage
My dendrobium nobile "atsuki" fell over the other day and broke the tops off
of the two new shoots coming out. The shoots (canes) were both about 4" long and when it fell it broke the top 1.5" off. The older bigger canes are naked with no leaves. Will they (the new ones) continue to grow or is the plant toast?? Both new canes have 1 to 2 leaves below the point where the tops snapped off. Thanks |

The broken canes will not continue to grow (but, with a slight chance of a keiki like growth continuing on) and the plant is not toast either. New growths (canes) will certainly grow from the bottom as they would if the accident had not happened. They may start very soon since the growth was stopped early, on the broken parts, or they may wait until the next growing season. I would bet on soon. Steve |
