I’ve had great success getting my moth orchids (Phalaenopsis Amabilis) to rebloom, but I never had luck with much else. I inherited this dendrobium kingianum from my father this year, and low and behold, look what happened. I read that it liked cool winters, so I put it in my basement under a grow light and started feeding it with a dilute orchid fertilizer in January. This photo was taken on April 10. I really don’t do much for my orchids, except water once a week or so. Never more than once a week, sometimes I’ll go 10 days. I put them in my kitchen sink, let the water run through them to wet the bark, then, depending on the time of year, I put them back in their cache pots and pour the diluted fertilizer in. I let them sit in that for about 30 min, then pour it off, and put them back on the windowsill. I grow my moths in a south window. Right now the kingianum is outside in dappled shade. These orchids are really very easy.
