Dendrobium Brymerianum 
DENDROBIUMS 
The Dendrobiums belong to a very large genus of epiphytal Orchids, widely distributed, and varying 
greatly in character and habit, some being dwarf and tufted, but 3 inches high, while others carry pseudo¬ 
bulbs 3 to 4 feet high. They grow best in pans or baskets, hung near the glass, in a mixture of fibrous peat 
and sphagnum moss. Care should be taken in giving them the smallest possible pans or baskets, as they are 
very sensitive to overpotting. With a few exceptions the Dendrobiums require plenty of heat and moisture. 
When their growth is completed, they require cooler treatment, with plenty of light and air, followed by a 
season of rest.
