Abstract
Successful reintroduction of an epiphytic orchid Dendrobium aqueum Lindley and assessment of its survival ex situ were studied. In vitro raised, well-developed, rooted shoots, with and without hardening and acclimatization pretreatments, were evaluated for reintroduction. Phenology of this species with respect to climatic condition and seasons are presented. Survival and growth of the reintroduced plants were analyzed parallel with the wild parents.
