Den scarbrilingue
I had never heard of this one but I couldn't pass it up!
The blooms remind me of a large Den oligophyllum bloom and smell very fresh, like it just got out of the shower

I love it! I have such a soft spot for dens. I'm also big on the whites, greens and yellows. So that little baby has it all. I think I'm in love.

It SMELLS SO good! I have it hanging on the door to the room so it's getting very bright light, almost full sun. Even being in a wide open space, this baby was pushing fragrance out about 5 ft in al directions
Laura and I grabbed the only two that were there...it was an omen, right?
Anyway, glad we didn't pass this one by

You've definitely 'sold me' on this one!very pretty and well ,with tfragrance which can be smelt at a distance of 5ft!!!!!!!! I Just must have one!!!
my slight problem is.... I've only ever had one Dend which I received as a gift in June 2007 & all I have managed to do with it is recuperate 20 odd keikis which are growing & are 4 " tall.. So, It will have to wait until I crack the code in my conditions about growing Dendrobiums!
Thanks for showing it to us I had never heard or seen one before.

The canes on this one are almost yellow, it's what made me originally think twice about getting it...then I remembered that Schoms are at their happiest when the canes are yellow and maybe this was the same way. Researched it when I got home and yes, it likes it BRIGHT!!!
