Dendrobium atroviolaceum x infundibulum
An intersectional cross between Section Latouria and Section Formosae. The plant resembles the mother with 20cm+, clavate, sulcate, yellow-green pseudobulbs, somewhat leathery leaves, which are more like the father, covering half the stem, instead of the latouria typical 2-3 coracious, dark green leaves.
The scape is just sub-apical and upright, 6 buds (maiden bloom). As a comparison to Formosae a foto of D. Hsinying Frostymaree 'Orange' buds, which are in pairs from the nodes along the cane-like p-bulb.
I'll post fotos of the flowers in a couple of weeks.
