Dendrobium palpebrae
I was surprised to find my Den. palpebrae in bloom this late in the year. It usually blooms in June. Unfortunately the flowers do not last very long--stays fresh for maybe 3-4 days at the most. I have the plant growing in a 6-inch plastic basket with orchid bark as the media.

My Den. palpebrae surprised me with another set of blooms here in the middle of March.
