Dendrobium Rolfe

A good choice for beginners, this rare, collectible, dwarf orchid has an abundance of 3cm, fragrant flowers through spring. Ideal in a hanging basket so you can best view the fuzzy, pendent blooms. Each is around 5cm across and lasts well and have good substance to the petals. These plants will take 2-3 years to flower.
Dendrobium loddigesii ‘Rolfe’ looks great in baskets or hanging baskets or affixed to bark, or the crevices or rocks and trees.
Dendrobium Orchids are also known as Sydney Rock Orchids and can be easily grown through most of Australia as they are tolerant of a wide range of temperatures. In cold climates they will need some protection from winter rains. They like their roots to be crowded in. They require filtered light. Water and fertilise regularly in spring and summer. Keep them on the dry side in autumn and winter, but not so dry the canes shrivel.
