D. vietnamiense (sp?)
 
I bought this plant recently and thought it was a NOID until today when I was putting it into the GH. There was a second plant label with this name. Trouble is, I cannot find any info. on it. Help? thanks

It's spelt vietnamense. This might help with your info search :)

Thanks Greengarden. Now I know what it looks like but I couldn't find any culture info.

I think it's a relatively new species, this article list it as originating from the lowland and submontane areas of northern Vietman so maybe do some research into climatic conditions for that area.

Dend. vietnamense
 
From Marlow Orchids web site.

Flowers profusly in June on established plants. Flowers are similar to Den. hercoglossum but plant habit is different. Recently described in 2005, and there is not much information in print. We grow the plants along side the rest of our intermediate to warm Dendrobiums but in very low light. The plants like to grow horizontally and after spike mature they can be 'righted' for yearly blooming.

Not much info, but I hope this helps!

Good luck with that vietnamense. That is a really nice find. I will have to acquire one myself. I was able to get hercoglossum to bloom once, but now it's doing poorly.
