DENDROBIUM "Ellen"

(kingianum x tetragonum) 

This beautifully scented small Orchid is easy to grow and performs well.
Its kingianum parent is a cool-growing lithophytic orchid from Eastern Australia, 

where it is also known as the “pink rock lily”.

In spring and summer, water as the compost starts to dry out. In winter, reduce watering, just enough to keep the canes from shrivelling. When in doubt, don’t water.

Fine quality specimens from the Quinta da Boa Vista Orchid garden, Madeira Island.
