Dendrobium papilio
This is the strain from Orchids Limited. Huge flowers on a wispy plant.

The first thought that popped into my head when I saw this was "Wow, very nice!". Very clean and lovely.

Beautiful! I was thinking it looked like a butterfly and the name just hit me, haha.
I love wispy plants... do you have an image of the entire plant?

That is absolutely stunning and well done! I have wanted this species for years but I don’t think it would appreciate my summer temps.

Wow, very nice! I'd never heard of this Den before, and it does live up to it's name, it's like a graceful butterfly.

Really nice! The flower is quite perfect, nice, full and flat. I also like the bamboo foliage (much like my Dendrobium auriculatum) as it makes it an attractive houseplant when not in bloom.

Thanks, I had hoped to take it to AOS judging last Saturday, but it was canceled due to the coronavirus.
