I got this last month as part of my new Dendrobium craze. Im pretty happy with the bloom, a nice looking set of impressively orange flowers. Thanks Orchid Board for helping choose!!

You got a beautiful plant there with many flowers...did you smell the crayon wax? Mine had two canes abloom and they sure brought back memories of coloring days in grade school when the teacher opened a fresh box of 'Crayola'

Beautiful! Of the various plants that have died in my possession I probably miss this species the most. What's your opinion on the fragrance?

 I had missed this thread. That's superb!!! all those flowers and the plant looks great!
I ordered one too as a TC to the project plant and it is nowhere near the size of your plant. It came with a few flowers but they where somewhat squashed in travelling. |
