Nobile-Type Dendrobium: Deciduous Rest Period Care

Yamamoto Dendrobium (Nobile Type)

• Deciduous, cool-growing (40–65°F ideal).
• Flowers along canes.
• Active growth: abundant water/feed.
• Rest (post-bloom): mist only, keep dry to prevent rot, prevent cane shriveling.
• If unsure if dry enough, don't water.

New Growth vs. Rest Timing

Plant bloomed Mar–Apr, two new canes growing. Support growth 1 more month, then force rest (reduce water, cool temps).
