Maroonish Keiki question: Is this normal? Male
Question Maroonish Keiki question: Is this normal?
I got this keiki from a friend and they didn't know what kind of orchid it is. I didn't get to see the parent plant and I have no idea what it is. The color is different than any orchid I have seen. It is a purplish color on the leaves and I'm assuming it is a different type of orchid, but I am also curious if it is sick. The roots look pretty good, nice and white, no noticeable issues. I'm really hoping that someone can help me here. Thanks.

Leaves will take on this reddish color when exposed to just a bit to much light (sun).
Can't help with an I.D.........maybe a dendrobium?
