I got this today at the Mid Hudson Orchid Society show and sale. I was told it's a Dendrobium that doesn't need a winter dry rest and that it would bloom 2 or 3 times a year. I can't read all of the tag and wonder if anyone can help me decipher it.

That is nice! Is it on the smaller side?

Yes it looks like a wonderful little Den.

It is very compact. Maybe 6 to 8 inches tall. It's in a 6 inch basket, but has about 10 Pseudo bulbs. I think I will repot it into a pot and maybe divide it at that time.

I think it is really cute. I didn't recognize it as a Den because it is different from my nobiles and also different from the Phal types I am used to. It has 2 inflorences from the top and also a couple down beween the leaves.

I wish you had told me you were going to the show...I was there, too! I used to have one of those that came from Carter and Holmes in SC. I think you are going to love it!

I had actually thought of that, but then I thought we would not really have a way to know who we were supposed to be meeting. We got there about 11:45 and were there about an hour. I was wishing I had lots more money than I had. I had to make some choices :biggrin:

We were there right when it opened and people were already coming out the door with plants!!! I got a nice den. atroviolaceum 'Pygmy' and oncidiums from a bargain bin. They were(obviously) not in bloom, but I was pretty sure from reading the names here on OB what I was going to get. I got the largest I could find and I divided them and repotted as soon as I got home. Once I cleaned them up a bit they looked OK. They are all in "quarantine" right now :) The divisions I will share with my friend...VERY cost effective if all goes according to plan!

We will definitely be at the fall show, too...maybe we will see you there. In the meantime, enjoy your pretty new den!
