What is dendrochilum?
Dendrochilum is a genus composed of flowering plants from the Orchida family, orchidaceae. The flowers on its two stems are very small and similar to the star. Dendrochilum are originally from rainforest at high altitude, especially in Borneo and the Philippines.
Orchids of the family dendrochilum are always. They are either epiphytic, litophytic or earthly, most of which are epiphytic. The epiphytic refers to a plant that does not grow from the ground as earthly plants, but rather to another, robust plant. Most often, these epiphytes joined the trees and took what they need to survive from rain and air. Orchids dendrochilum , which connect to the rocks instead of other plants, are called lithophytic.
The first part of the name, dendron means a tree in ancient Greek. The other half of the name is more insecure, but comes from one of the two roots: Cheilos or chilos , which means lips and green food. TheseDates most likely refer to either large pseudo -skills at the base of plants that resemble lips or its preferences for growing trees. Plants are also referred to as chain orchids and ddc , the abbreviated form of dendrochilum
dendrochilum was not determined anywhere from 100 to 390 species. Plants of this family prefer higher altitudes found in the rainforests of Southeast Asia. Many species are endemic to areas in Borneo and the Philippines.
Gardeners who long for a less ordinary species of orchids often prefer the family dendrochilum for their unconventional form and attractive aromatic fragrance. Many small flowers are arranged on two stems called inflorescence. The color of the flowers can be creamy white, bright yellow and ahluboká, crimson red. Individual plants tend to grow in groups and increaseThey are to their temptation.
6 While most of these orchids are resistant plants, an environment that has permanently sporadic temperatures can cause long -term damage. They need indirect sunlight and shadow and benefit at warm temperatures. They should be connected at least once a week, more, if the current season is hot and dry or the plant is exposed to a longer period of direct sunlight.
