Default Dendrochilum cootesii

Reasonably small member of the genus, total plant height is about 7", growing in a 4" plastic net pot in sphagnum moss. Grows like a weed! It doubled in size this year and gave me seven spikes. Has that typical weird Dendrochilum odor; kinda like the inside of a cat litter box mixed with bubblegum.

Nice! I love the wavy petals! You should try to get a little clearer close up and submit it for the next calendar!

I'd need a better camera for that, which has been on the want list for a long time, but not in the budget...
