Beautiful! I love the lip on your Den.. My mini Den. is still blooming from July. The longevity of the flowers are a wonderful bonus and make growing so much fun.

Wow, looks like another dendrobium I would love to add to my collection. Beautiful!
How tall is the plant? Does it have any parents from the Latourias section? The flowers are somewhat similar to my Dendrobium Proud Appeal 'Ace', which has some Latouria in its parentage. Does it flower more than once a year?

I did a research on its parentage, pod parent is Den Kim Bora and pollen parent is Den Wee Liam. I tried to research the whole family tree and... I ended up quitting after a few generations because it's too long, but I couldn't remember seeing any latouria species, it's mainly spatulata and den phalaenopsis.
Mine probably about a foot and a half, but I know it probably grow larger and I saw a bump near the top of the cane so probably it will develop another spike |

The pollen parent is Den. Wee Lian. I was excited when I saw it written as Den. Wee Liam in your post. I have been thinking about researching and purchasing orchids which have the names of my children. I have also been considering getting a dendrobium so it was a perfect fit. It was close anyway, back to the drawing board.

Haha thanks for noticing! I didn't realize the typing error...
Sorry about that, I think my iPad auto correct it somehow.
Just checking the RHS orchid register, you are right! There are no Dendrobium Liam something! quite a few Williams though, surprising...
Hopefully someone will name a Dendrobium with Liam on its name someday soon |
