Care Instructions for Dendrobium Latte Orchid:
- Light Requirements: The Dendrobium Latte Orchid thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as this can scorch the leaves. A spot near an east or west-facing window is perfect, where it can get plenty of indirect sunlight throughout the day.
- Watering: Water your Dendrobium Latte Orchid thoroughly when the top 1-2 inches of the potting medium are dry. Make sure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging.
- Temperature: This orchid prefers a moderate temperature range of 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C). It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures but should be protected from frost and cold drafts. Ideal temperatures for flowering are between 70°F and 75°F (21°C – 24°C).
- Humidity: Orchids, including the Dendrobium Latte, thrive in 50% to 70% humidity. If you’re growing it indoors, consider using a humidity tray, a room humidifier, or placing the plant in a naturally humid area like a bathroom (with sufficient light). Ensure good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.
- Fertilization: Feed your Dendrobium Latte Orchid with a balanced orchid fertilizer (20-20-20) every 2 weeks during the growing season (spring through summer). Reduce fertilization during the winter months when the plant is not actively growing. Always dilute the fertilizer to half strength to avoid overfeeding.
- Repotting: Repot your Dendrobium Latte Orchid every 1-2 years to refresh the growing medium and encourage healthy root development. Orchids prefer to be slightly root-bound but need fresh potting mix for optimum health. Use a well-draining orchid potting mix, such as bark or coconut husk, and ensure that the pot has drainage holes.
- Pruning and Flower Care: After blooming, prune the flower spike back to the base once it has turned brown. If the spike remains green after blooming, you can leave it to potentially encourage a second bloom. Remove any dead or damaged leaves and stems to keep the plant healthy and looking its best.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How often should I water my Dendrobium Latte Orchid?
A: Water your Dendrobium Latte Orchid when the top 1-2 inches of the potting medium feel dry. During the growing season (spring and summer), water once a week, but reduce watering to once every two weeks during the winter months. Always ensure excess water drains from the pot to avoid root rot.
Q: What light conditions are best for the Dendrobium Latte Orchid?
A: Dendrobium Lattes prefer bright, indirect light. They can tolerate a few hours of direct sunlight in the morning or late afternoon, but prolonged exposure to harsh sun can burn the leaves. An east or west-facing window is ideal.

Q: What kind of fertilizer should I use for my Dendrobium Latte Orchid?
A: Use a balanced orchid fertilizer (such as a 20-20-20 formula), diluted to half strength. Feed the orchid every two weeks during the growing season (spring through summer), and reduce fertilization during the dormant period (fall and winter).
Q: When should I repot my Dendrobium Latte Orchid?
A: Repot your Dendrobium Latte Orchid every 1-2 years, or when the potting medium breaks down or the plant outgrows its pot. Orchids prefer slightly root-bound conditions, but the potting medium needs to be refreshed for healthy growth.
Q: What temperature does the Dendrobium Latte Orchid need?
A: The Dendrobium Latte Orchid thrives in temperatures between 65°F and 85°F (18°C – 29°C). It should be kept away from cold drafts and frost, especially during winter.
