While in flower, Dendrobium Orchids require a warm position with a constant temperature above 15C (60F). Choose a brightly lit position away from draughts and radiators, avoiding the direct glare of the sun.

Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry out at the surface between each watering. Use tepid rainwater where possible, and let the pot drain well afterwards. Avoid leaving Dendrobiums in standing water as this may cause the plant to rot. House plants should be fed regularly between March and September when they are in active growth. Dendrobiums enjoy a humid atmosphere and will appreciate regular misting.

After flowering, trim away any faded flowers but leave the stem intact. In autumn, move Dendrobiums to a cooler position to allow new buds to form. Reduce watering during this period and allow the compost to dry out slightly between waterings. Once the buds have formed, the plant may be returned to its original growing position, and watering increased.
