Can Dendrobium Nobiles Cross breed with other Dendrobium types?

Can dendrobium nobile cross breed with thyrsiflorum?

There is a registered hybrid between Den. nobile and thyrsiflorum called Den. Backhousei, created back in 1892(!!) So yes, intersectional hybrid between section Dendrobium and sect. Densiflorum is possible, I guess.

Yes, there are quite a few such registered hybrids.

Actually, orchids were more popular in the 1800s, if measured by the steps people were prepared to take to find and keep them.
