Australian Dendrobium in bloom...out of season!!

This week Plant Lovers let's take a look at a plant I bought eight months ago from an orchid show that many of you were worried was virused! It's a fairly complex hybrid: Dendrobium Colonial Campio X Dendrobium speciosum 'Windermere'. Well....I think we can conclude it WAS sun damage and environmental damage after all! But that's not the focus of this video. The plant has burst into fabulous bloom...in Autumn! Now most of the Australian Dendrobiums; kingianum, delicatum, speciosum and their hybrids bloom in early spring. So what's going on with this one? It could just be one of those odd things that happen, or! It could be some of the species ancestors of the hybrids have different flowering cycles. Let's see!
