A primary hybrid between Den. gonzalesii and Den. cuthbertsonii f. pink, combining the compact, free-flowering habit of both parents with star-shaped blooms of soft rose-lilac sepals and petals surrounding a striking tubular orange-gold lip with red markings. The pink form is a selected color variant that blooms prolifically and holds its flowers for an exceptionally long period.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 4060% shade cloth; avoid harsh midday sun, which can stress the compact foliage and pseudobulbs.
- Temperature: 5572F (1322C); intermediate to cool grower. Cool nights are important for triggering and sustaining bloom cycles.
- Humidity: 7090%; high humidity is beneficial. Ensure strong air movement to prevent fungal issues around the dense, compact growth.
- Watering: Keep evenly moist during active growth; reduce slightly after flowering. Never allow roots to sit in standing water.
