Here’s a detailed care guide for Dendrobium (ds-063) 🌸 — a hybrid Dendrobium orchid admired for its bright, elegant flowers and easy adaptability to Indian climates.

Here’s a detailed care guide for Dendrobium (ds-063):

🌤️ Light

Needs bright, indirect light for healthy growth and flowering.
Ideal exposure: 4–6 hours of filtered sunlight daily.
Indoors: place near an east-facing window or a well-lit balcony.
Too little light = no blooms; too much direct sun = scorched leaves.

🌡️ Temperature

Thrives in warm to intermediate temperatures:
- Day: 25–32°C
- Night: 16–20°C
Tolerates mild heat but avoid cold drafts or temps below 12°C.

💧 Watering

Water thoroughly when the top 1–2 cm of the medium dries out.
Keep evenly moist during growth and bud formation (spring–summer).
During resting period (winter), reduce watering — keep just enough moisture to prevent canes from shriveling.
Always ensure good drainage; never leave roots sitting in water.

💨 Humidity

Prefers 50–70% humidity.
Use a pebble tray or humidifier if indoors.
Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal or bacterial infections.

🌱 Fertilizer

Feed with a balanced orchid fertilizer (20-20-20) every 2 weeks during active growth.
Before flowering, switch to a high-phosphorus fertilizer (10-30-20) to encourage buds.
In winter, fertilize once a month or pause until new shoots appear.
Always water lightly before applying fertilizer to avoid root burn.

🪴 Potting & Medium

Use a free-draining mix such as orchid bark + charcoal + perlite.
Repot every 2–3 years or when the medium breaks down.
Best time to repot: after flowering, when new roots start emerging.

🌼 Flowering

DS-063 typically blooms once or twice a year, with flowers lasting 2–4 weeks.
Flowers appear along the upper nodes of mature canes.
After flowering, do not cut green canes — they can rebloom or store energy for new growth.
