Dendrobium tannii - flowers Male
Default Dendrobium tannii - flowers

I obtained a Dendrobium tannii in early February. Imagine my surprise when what I thought were odd leaves turned out to be flowers... My orchid "noob" status writ large!

Anyway, here's a picture of the flowers; you can read more about it and see more pictures (and click through to bigger copies) at my Orchids on a Balcony blog post, "An Unexpected Treat (and a little science) - Dendrobium tannii".



I believe some people consider this species invalid and would list it as a compact growing Den. bracteosum, or Den. bracteosum var. tannii.
