Dens. starting new growth
Cynthia, Jerry & others who helped, thank you. I followed your excellent advice and stopped fussing with my dendrobiums. You were right and I just needed to understand their habits and be a little more patient.
I thought they were all destined for death with loosing so many leaves; however, I withheld water for several weeks now and this morning noticed new growth. There are new pbulbs. starting at the base and I noticed that 3 pbulbs. have new growth starting at the tip of the canes.
Now my question is: When do I start watering & fertilizing again? Is is too soon?
