Orchid of the Month: July

Dendrobium subuliferum

This gorgeous miniature species from New Guinea has been sought after by growers for many years. The tufted habit, topped with lovely flowers with broad crystal-white petals makes it an ideal companion for Dendrobium cuthbertsonii and other Oxyglossum species. Unlike most others in this group, Dendrobium subuliferum is fragrant; the only other Oxyglossum to be also scented is the closely related Dendrobium cyanocentrum. The species should be grown on the intermediate side of cool, kept humid and moist at all times and with good air movement.
