Originally the botanical species Dendrobium kingianum is found in Australia. The orchid grows on tree branches (epiphytic). In Australia this orchid is also called "bamboo orchid", because it has many branches. What is striking about this orchid are the many small purple flowers, the wonderful light scent that this houseplant spreads and the large amount of branches. The flowering period is unique. The plant starts flowering in November and flowers until the end of May.Dendrobium "Berry Oda" is a very richly flowering hybrid with beautiful purple flowers.Place this orchid in a bright spot, but not in direct sunlight. Keep it cool and aerated; you can put it outside in the summer. Water the plant when the soil is almost dry, so once every 7 to 9 days. And regularly mist the youngest buds. Every two weeks, give it a splash of special orchid plant food and add a teaspoon of lime to the potting soil 3 to 4 times a year. Do not fertilise in November, December or January. Refresh the soil once every three years. You can prune the spent branch at the bottom; then a new branch will grow after 8 to 12 months.
