Dendrobium Banana Royal
This miniature dendrobium is a cross between Den. Liholiho (named for a Hawaiian king) and Den. canaliculatum, a very nice Australian species. It is growing in a 2 1/2" pot and hangs with the vandas. The root system is massive for such a small plant. The longest cane is about eight inches and the flower is two inches. The perfume is delectable.

Looks great, Jerry! 
I have this one and for some reason, it was very unhappy last year. I don't know what changed but it's suddenly looking a little better...maybe there's hope!
Thanks for sharing yours, it was a nice reminder  |

VERY nice, Jerry! It's gorgeous!
It looks very similar to Dendrobium Pixie Princess (photo below), which also has a fabulous fragrance. Do you think they have similar parentages??
