The Dendrobium orchid is known as the Bamboo Orchid due to the look of its greenish canes, and this ‘Apollon’ variety is the most versatile among Dendrobiums. The canes become completely covered in buds and large flowers, in white with a soft yellow centre, giving this orchid a dramatic, sophisticated look and ensuring a stunning display in any indoor space. It’s also worth noting its sweet fragrance and how easy it is to care for. Perfect for beginners or seasoned orchid lovers, it’s a fantastic choice if you want to add an elegant touch to your home, with a plant whose abundant blooms last and radiate exotic calm.

CUIDADOS
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Doesn’t tolerate direct sun.
Watering: Water moderately, letting the substrate dry slightly between waterings. In winter, reduce watering frequency.
Temperature: Ideally keep between 18°C and 25°C. Protect from temperatures below 10°C and cold drafts. It benefits from being outdoors during summer, but should be protected before the first frost. In autumn/winter, keep it at 10–15°C to encourage blooming the following season.
Humidity: Prefers higher humidity, between 50% and 70%. Use a humidifier or mist with water to maintain humidity.
Fertilising: Fertilise every two weeks/monthly in spring–summer with a specific orchid fertiliser.
Soil: Use a specific orchid mix, such as pine bark, charcoal and perlite, for good drainage and aeration.
Pruning: Remove wilted flowers/leaves to promote healthy growth. Prune dry flower spikes after flowering.
Pet friendly: This plant is safe for your pet.
Fun fact: To bloom, this orchid needs a temperature drop in autumn/winter (nights between 10°C and 15°C) for several weeks to trigger flowering.
