Finding light for Den loddigesii in your home
a window
Den loddigesii may have difficulty thriving, and will drop leaves 🍃, without ample sunlight.
Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.
Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Den loddigesii in your home 🏡.
How to fertilize Den loddigesii
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Den loddigesii after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Moved my dendrobium loddigesii over to a cork mount today (was on a cedar shingle prior and drying a bit too rapidly for my like.) This is a small dendrobium species with very cute pink & yellow blooms. 🌸 See the 2nd photo for a drawing I’m working on, for what it looks like. 🙂 We won’t get any blooms this year, but maybe next year! Focusing on new cane growth until then. Already have a new one coming. #OrchidLovers #NewGrowth #Dendrobium #OrchidOrg #HappyPlants #GregGang #PlantArt #PlantsMakePeopleHappy

A Day In the Life So today I went to one of our major plant stores (like Lowe’s or Home Depot in the US) for a workshop where I ended up building, vanishing etc a coat hanger shelf. But the outing meant I saw lots of lovely plants and so I will share just a small portion of all the photos of plants I took today (some edited highlights!?!) #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #NewGrowth #PropagationStation #PlantTherapy #OrchidLovers #GregGang #Greggers #theamigos #Seymour #PLANTMAFIA

Another day, another orchid bloom. Apparently orchids really like infrequent watering, lots of fertilizer and sitting on a British south-facing window sill above a heater! #OrchidLovers #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #NewGrowth
