Dendrobium sp
 

Bought it almost a month and a half ago as an unknown species. Couldn't remember where the seller got it from, I think it was from Nusa Tenggara (Lesser Sunda Islands). Just gave it plenty of sun and water twice a day and boom...

:shock: That's a monster! ;) Lovely blooms!

Wow!!!

Pretty pink blooms, massive plant!

It looks like Dendrobium lancifolium.

Yes you are right! The guy who sold me this wasn't too familiar with species, his brother was. I finally asked his brother and he confirmed it as lancifolium but couldn't remember whether it is a Papuan or a Sulawesi lancifolium.

Another thing, a few days ago I bought a Torajan lancifolium. The plant, because it's smaller, looked different. but I saw the leaf looked the same. the Torajan (the seller said) is more darker than others..

Wow, so tall... and so pretty!

Gloomy morning but this cheer me up a little http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/16/02...2f68671b0e.jpg 20 blooms and buds

Nice growing, that sure does cheer one up alright.

So beautiful! Your plants seem to be loving your climate, congratulations on your success with these guys. Is it fragrant?

Beautiful! This is not a species I'm familiar with.

No, it's not fragrant

Very nice! Where in Indonesia are you?

I 'm in Jakarta

Glad to hear that these beautiful dendrobiums bloom for you in such hot weather in Jakarta. Do you grow them on the balcony in the pics under canopy?

Striking!

At first we did want to install a canopy but the building management advised us not to because It is quite windy up there and they are afraid that if we installed one, it would get blown away.

I grow this lancifolium full sun although the spot where I grow it receives some shade late in the day from because of a wall nearby.

Thanks for the info!

Very nice plants Suri, very pretty flowers! How tall are they?

Finally, I found my tape measure. It's about 32 inches tall

Oh my other lancifolium also bloomed sometimes ago.



This one is from Toraja in Southern Sulawesihttp://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2016...e371437fb8.jpg

Oh my, now how cute is that.

I love it how you guys in SG can grow orchids in nothing more than a few pieces of charcoal!!
