A mini nobile-type species Dendrobium with a widespread distribution throughout Asia, which includes China, Western Himalayas, Nepal, eastern Himalayas, Assam, Myanmar, Vietnam, Korea, Ryukyus Islands and Taiwan.

They have a wonderful sweet fragrance and flower well after a cool/dry rest in the winter. However, intermediate/warm conditions can work and the plants will flower randomly throughout the year in smaller flower quantities.

Dendrobium moniliforme are very versatile growers and can do well mounted on slabs or in containers with bark or sphagnum moss. They also grow well in the traditional moss mound with unglazed clay pots, which is typically how we offer them.
