Den. Hsinying Sweetscent is a hybrid between Den. parishii (syn. rhodopterygium) var. Semi-Alba 'Ching Hua #1' and Den. anosmum var. coerulea. It has the amazing scent combination of a Dendrobium anosmum and Dendrobium parishii (syn. Den. rhodopterygium). This variety has variation of white to pink and touch of blue flowers with dark burgundy throat on white or pink lip. They reach full bloom in Spring and remain in bloom for about four weeks. Under cooler conditions, the flowers may last longer. A well grown pseudobulb can produce over 100 flowers. 

 

These plants have heat tolerance; and do not need a cold winter rest in order to bloom. Blooms on old and newly matured leafless canes. They are heavy feeders and want abundant water in their growing cycle from April to October. Grow them in an area of filtered sunlight. Avoid direct midday sunlight, unless you are close to the mountains and have a lot of cloud cover. Plants look better when they are not in bloom!

NOTE: This type of Dendrobium drops its leaves just before coming into flower season. Once the plant is done flowering new growths will emerge from the base of the plant and produce keikies along the canes.
