Dendrobium Aussie's Hi-Lo f. pink

This pink-flowered hybrid features broad, overlapping segments with a softly sparkling texture and a contrasting reddish lip accented with yellow. Its rounded blooms create a full, eye-catching display for an orchid collection.

• Light: Bright, filtered light near an east-facing window or beneath light greenhouse shade. Gentle morning sun is suitable; protect from intense midday exposure.
• Temperature: Intermediate to warm-growing; aim for days of 70–85°F (21–29°C) and nights of 60–65°F (16–18°C). Protect from frost and sudden temperature changes.
• Humidity: Aim for 50–70% humidity with gentle air circulation. Avoid leaving flowers wet overnight.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the potting mix approaches dryness, then allow excess water to drain completely. Increase watering during active growth and reduce frequency when growth slows, without leaving the plant persistently wet or allowing canes to shrivel severely.

Additional Notes:

Use a snug pot and an airy orchid mix, such as medium-grade bark, to support healthy roots. Retain firm, healthy older canes as nutrient reserves, and repot when new roots begin to develop. Feed lightly during active growth rather than maintaining a heavy fertilizer schedule year-round.
