Do orchids grow during the Fall season?

kk asked:


My wedding is in November and I wanted to emphasize on orchids (mainly Dendrobium Orchids) but I don't know if it's available during this season. Do you know?

    I’m pretty sure these guys bloom in late winter/early spring. Their blooms probably wouldn’t last until November. However, some growers that use greenhouses and who can control lighting, temps, etc… can bloom plants out of season. I’d do some searching around and see what you can find. You may end up purchasing pricey out of season blooms, but then again I may be wrong and you’ll find some blooming during November. I’m a phalaenopsis grower, not dendrobium. Goodluck!

    Yes - dendrobium phalaenopsis should be in bloom at that time.

    yes… blooming success also depends on fertilizing and stuff like that

    make sure you either give the orchids away to people who want them or take them yourself..
    they are tricky to care for - so shouldnt just be given to anyone.. a pity for them to be killed…
