Just thought you should know if you get it that it will need some elbow room. It's not tall but it does like to spread out.

Thanks Katrina I've got the space and I can only hope that mine thrives and spreads very far (once I get one, of course!)

I looked it up in OrchidWiz and it seems that RHS now calls this Dendrobium wasselli!

Sorry Carrie :-) I am not sure if all Dockrillia orchids are now called Dendrobiums, it may be :-) They belong to this group for sure. It is also pretty easy to grow and grows fast too.

Many thanks katrina, and YES this is not miniature, it is small orchid but it grows fast and spreads like crazy!!!

I just ordered it from Andy's Orchids (along with a few other thing that I had to have.....). It is indeed listed as Dendrobium on their web site. A rose by any other name.....
