Orchid Care .. What is wrong?
I think I have a dendrobium orchid. The type that looks like bamboo leaves protruding from the sides evenly. The problem is clear, I noticed black spots on leaves, which appear on the leaves and can be rubbed off as a kind of fungus on the surface or fungus. The plant seems to be doing well and the AI leaves much to lose a couple of old leaves was divided in half. Is this something that requires a change in emphasis, is a disease? or just normal.
normal and the nature of the installation … You can change ……. Dendrobium Dendrobium Dendrobium Phalaenopsis type of attention love that hot! They also like carelessness. Of course, many kinds of Dendrobium – With "Dendrobium Phalaenopsis type" being the easiest to maintain. Antler Dendrobium prefer a type similar. Dendrobium Dendrobium nobile are a bit more picky when it comes to bloom – they like to get in a cooler area of part of the year.
