Default Dendrobium pulchellum

I was so excited that I got this one to re-bloom for me. I bought it last year and just happened to find one with an older bloom on it that was hiding at Del Favero Orchids. The bloom only lasted a few days for me, but I was thrilled with the colors and textures on this one...

I love that the spots seem to have little hairs leading into the center, but they are really just streaks of color.

You can see on this shot the fine white hairs on the lip.

The plant is fairly large. I would guess that the growth is around 3 feet long...

I love looking at all you guys' Dendros. I can't grow most of these guys for beans. So I enjoy all your photos. Keep 'em coming.

I think the flowers are unique! Did i see no leaves there? Is it normal? I have one plant in flower but no leaves (the cane looks thin like yours) and I am very worried! But there are some babies at the base, yay!

Mine is in a basket with no medium at all...
My growing conditions are fairly bright, really warm and lots of water.
Yes, this plant does bloom from the old canes.
