Dendrobium purpureum var. album
This plant really catches your eyes with the puffballs of flowers clustered on the upper reaches of the stems. The tips of the white flowers are green. The plant is growing in a 5-inch clay pot with New Zealand Sphagnum moss as the media. I got this plant in 2010 as a keiki taken off a very large plant owned by Orchid Center in Waianae, Hawaii.

Beautiful. I saw this one (and a purple one) in person at a show and it was stunning. I liked white better.
Vendor said they need frequent watering.
How often you you water it or does it need constant moisture?

Absolutely incredible and I'm not normally a dendrobium fan! Always makes you the proudest when you've grown from a small plant to this!! Congratulations!
