dendrobium moniliforme

[Orchidtinkerer]

Just a quick snap of my dendrobium moniliforme which is flowering at the moment.
Just a very modest flowering as it is new, I can tell this one can do so much more but it is a special dendrobium as it has adapted to my climate faster than any dendrobium with a sweet slightly soapy vanilla fragrance now the flowers are open.
I was really surprised to spot these flowers, the buds had all turned brown when I got this in october but some sprung back to life and I spotted some banana shaped flowers (they look like green bananas when they are developing). It really responded well at mine.

Very nice surprise for 2021

They are such sturdy little plants, and VERY adaptable, as you have found. I have had a few blossoms on mine but still waiting on the full flush of bloom.
