 Dendrobium not flowering
Hi,
I bought my first orchid about a year ago. I think it is a dendrobium (lots of pseudobulbs, delicate stems growing between leaves and small scented purple flowers). It flowered for about 2 months after purchase, but since then it hasn't flowered, although there has been a huge amount of growth both from new bulbs and the existing ones over the 10 months since it stopped flowering. Does anyone have any advice on how to encourage it to flower? Thankyou.
I also have a Phal that I bought last October which has been flowering for 9 months - the stem just grew and grew and more buds appeared, but sadly the last flower is just about to open. Does anyone have any advice on how I should care for it once the flowers all drop, in terms of cutting, repotting, watering etc? Thankyou very much. |
