How to Grow Dendrobium

Question

How to grow Dendrobium anosmum in my area (League City, TX)? I am worried about winter.

Answer 1

Orchids can be tricky in that these exotic plants have very specific needs - namely heat and humidity. This is why most are grown indoors, as their chance of surviving over winter would be fairly slim, even in your area. That said, you can grow them in a container and bring indoors for overwintering.
