BeginnerDendrobium aggregatum
A small Dendrobium with vivid yellow flower clusters, spectacular when blooming all at once in spring.
Dendrobium aggregatum (synonym Dendrobium lindleyi) is a small epiphytic orchid native to rocky outcrops and trees in northeastern India, Myanmar, Thailand, southern China, and Vietnam. Plants grow 10–20 cm with angular, compact pseudobulbs bearing a single leathery leaf. In spring (March–May) pendant inflorescences bear two to fifteen vivid yellow to golden-orange flowers in a spectacular simultaneous display. Cultivation requires a cold, dry winter dormancy (below 10°C with minimal water) to initiate flower buds, followed by strong light, ample water, and regular feeding during the growing season. A free-draining bark or pumice medium is used.
