The OSRBG Orchid of the Month, as chosen by those voting at our February meeting, is Dendrobium senile, brought to the Show Table by Michael Chvedukas. Michael said he hadn’t owned it long enough to provide tips on growing it, but the Orchidspecies website tells us that art needs lower light in the wet summer and higher light in the dry winter with high humidity year-round. Its common names are White-haired dendrobium (note the fuzzy pseudobulbs) or Old Man Orchid. The flowers have a light lemony fragrance. Congratulations Michael, and thanks to all who voted.
