Cultivation Tips:

It is found at elevations ranging from 350 to 2200 meters across the western Himalayas, Assam India, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Sikkim, Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, and Vietnam. In its natural habitat, it enjoys humid, mixed, coniferous forests and primary, broadleaf evergreen lowland forests.

Light & Temperature: This orchid thrives in environments with moderate to bright light, around 50-70% of natural sunlight. It is adaptable to a range of temperatures from warm to cool, reflecting its native environments.

Humidity & Airflow: Ensure good air circulation and maintain a humidity level of about 60-70%. Dendrobium chrysanthum prefers an airy environment to flourish.

Watering & Fertilization: During the growing season, keep the medium consistently moist but not waterlogged. From October onwards, reduce watering and do not fertilize. This rest period is crucial to encourage blooming in the following spring.

Winter Rest: In winter, stop watering completely and allow the plant to experience cooler, drier conditions. This period is essential for the orchid to set blooms for the next growing season.

For optimal flowering, ensure the plant receives pure natural light, adequate dryness, and airflow during the winter rest period. Fertilize the plant in August to support healthy growth and prepare for the next blooming cycle.
