Dendrobium tetragonum var. giganteum

[SlipperFan]

Cute little 1" long flower -- and it's fragrant.

Very nice, Dot! Do you give this one the same conditions as speciosum and/or kingianum?

Hey nice photography work! Lovely flower.

These are great to grow.

I think it's a warmer grower than either of those, and it likes lower light and water throughout the year. It's in my East window in my intermediate sunroom, and I water it 2x a week.

Neat. I forgot to take photos of mine. I think yours has better color.

Nice bloom!

I have this one and it is the slooooowest growing thing I have ever seen. One new growth last year, one new growth coming right now. Zzzzzzz. Maybe I'm not giving it enough water - only once a week. Hmmmm....

Beautiful close-up! I love these Dens and their pendant growth habit. So very cool.

Very cute, but hardly what you would call gigantic. Great shot too...thanks Dot!

Yea, I wonder about that also. I'd like to see a "regular" one as comparison.
