Den. Nora Tokunaga
I picked up this little unique little Dendro this weekend. It is a cross of Den (atroviolaceum 'Pygmy' x rhodostictum). It looks like a little "bulldog orchid"!

Nice one Jason! I love the Latouria section of Dendrobium. It has the most interesting plants. I have one of the parent plants Den. atroviolaceum 'Pygmy'. It's very cute. The rhodosticum gives it bigger whiter flowers.
