Thanks for the compliments. Yes, I will register the cross. Next step is to come up with a name.

The flowers were pollinated in February 2010; pod sent to the lab in May 2010; and flasks received from the lab in April 2011. From the flasks, the seedlings went into community pots. About 2 years ago I planted the plants from the community pots into 2-inch pots. Only about 12 seedlings survived mostly due to neglect. 4 plants have bloomed. The plant that I photographed is the largest and best of those that bloomed. The others had only 3-4 flowers. A couple of plants had pure white flowers with green color in the throat.

Unfortunately Hawaiian Sunshine is already taken by another dendrobium otherwise it would've been a very fitting name!

Can you do a self pollination and send me some seeds since you only have a few plants left. I would love it.

Wow, Cntry, if you do get some and they grow for you, could I maybe get a couple of the seedlings from you. That baby is gorgeous.

Okay. I'm game. I'll make a selfing and send you the seedpod(s). You can germinate and distribute. What state are you in?
