Default Dendrobium wassellii
This little species dendrobium is native to Northern Australia and is a very easy grower. Looks a lot like and has the same cultural requirements as Brassovola nodosa but is about one half the size. The one inch flowers are very curly, especially the lip.

It likes to grow on a mount with high light, warm temps, frequent watering (4 or 5 a wk.) and once a wk. diluted (3/4 tsp.) fertilizer.

Steve, I bought it at Oak Hill Gardens about a year ago. In checking the tag just now, I noticed it has a very pleasant scent.
