Dendrobium crumenatum

[Rosim_in_BR]

This is a very short-lived Dendrobium, I mean, its flowers are. They stay open for a few hours, if so! When the buds are forming you have to stay alert, otherwise you don't see the flowers. Yesterday, bye the end of the day, the buds of mine weren't open. When I remembered to check them out today (by noon), they had opened and faded already! Only one of the flowers, although already fading, was more or less open and I photographed it anyway.
