Lc Mini Purple 'Blue' is one tough plant! I bought it almost 20 years ago at a local nursery. It did well for me and then one year it almost died - except for a small piece which started to grow again. I see three new growths with buds right now. Nicely scented.

My Dendrobium batanense got again the signal! It usually starts a flush of pretty, fragrant blooms after a significant downpour. Must have been the change from outside to a nice warm rainwater shower inside the greenhouse.
