Dendrobium Tangerinum, also known as the Tangerine-Coloured Dendrobium, is a distinctive orchid species native to New Guinea. This small to large-sized orchid is primarily an epiphyte, naturally growing on trees in lowland rainforest habitats, although it can also be found growing on exposed rocks at higher elevations. Its striking orange yellow to orange red flowers feature unique twisted petals, giving the blooms an unusual and eye catching appearance. The long flowering spikes can carry multiple blooms, making this species a fascinating addition to an orchid collection. Dendrobium Tangerinum grows best with bright light, warmth to intermediate temperatures, regular watering, and good air circulation.
