Potted specimen in bloom
Dendrobium seed pod
Keikis growing on mother plant
Here is one of my very first orchids, a hardy dendrobium hybrid. This plant bloomed reliably for many, many years and the blooms were more and more numerous with each passing season. This dendrobium started flowering around Christmas and blooms lasted until early to late summer.

Dendrobium orchids reproduce sexually (pollen and ovary) to produce seed pods and asexually by forming small plantlets growing on the mother plant. The plantlet is called a keiki (means "baby" in Hawaiian).
