In nature, nobile type dens are subjected to monsoons...six months of hot, wet weather and six months of cold, dry weather. They are also deciduous. Other type dendrobiums are not subjected to the monsoons, and are used to pretty even conditions year round. However, with less light in the winter, water and fertilizer can be drastically reduced. Both types like all the sun you can give them.
