I have found that this Dendrobium is easy to cultivate in Puerto Rico. The plant needs a well drained medium, abundant watering and regular fertilizing to produce its long canes. It does equally well in the coast and in the mountains. Where I live, at 1000 feet of altitude temperatures only go under 60F at night during a short spell in winter, it doesn't seem to bother this plant. I prefer to cultivate upside down like I do my Den. anosmum so that the mature canes hang down as they do in nature. This is the first blooming of this species for me, the plant is still small and young. I expect that when it reaches its adult size it will produce its characteristic many flowered globular inflorescences.
