This article introduces how to cultivate Dendrobium to make it more vigorous and related topics on the proper care of Dendrobium flowers, which will surely be helpful to you. Let's learn about it together!
The first time I heard about Dendrobium, it was mentioned that it can be used for health preservation. In fact, Dendrobium flowers are also very beautiful, even more beautiful than orchids, and many friends enjoy growing it just to see its flowers.
In fact, the plant of Dendrobium is not too beautiful, and its care form is similar to that of orchids. So how should we care for potted Dendrobium?
First, pot selection
The roots of Dendrobium are also very robust, and the pot should preferably be made of purple sand or ceramic, which has good drainage.
The potting soil can be made of decomposed pine bark, which is thick and has strong water-locking capabilities. When watering, it can lock in some moisture, while excess water can seep out without accumulating. Then, add some large granule red jade soil to the potting soil to keep the roots stable. This provides a better stabilization effect, allowing the roots to grow well.

Second, lighting
The original environment of Dendrobium is in damp forests, and it is a epiphytic plant that clings to trees. Therefore, it prefers environments with sufficient diffused light or semi-shade. It should not be exposed to strong sunlight directly, as this can easily cause the leaves to turn yellow and fall off.
Some friends tie Dendrobium to trees to simulate its native environment, and it grows very well.
Third, moisture
Dendrobium prefers a humid environment, with a growth temperature between 15 to 25 degrees Celsius. If you are growing Dendrobium, try to place it in a humid environment and increase the air humidity by misting every day.
