Dendrobium Orchid hybrids are the largest group of orchid family. When caring for Dendrobium orchids remember they are epiphytic and require good light and ventilation. Dendrobiums Orchids like all plants require some care, they like to be in small pots with roots confined. An open potting mix which drains easily is essential. Repoting is required if the mixbecomes acid and wet or when the plant is rootbound. Detailed notes on how to grow dendrobium orchids and dendrobium orchid care are available from nurseries and suppliers.

Australian Dendrobium species include : Dendrobium Bigibbum or the 'Cooktown Orchid' which is the floral emblem of QLD and Dendrobium speciosum or 'Sydney Rock Orchid', while Dendrobium kingianum or 'Pink Rock Lily' is found widely along the east coast of Queensland
