Dendrobium lasianthera 'Sepik Blue'?
 

Hi,

I bought this plant on ebay last year as Dendrobium lasianthera 'Sepik Blue'. The plant itself looks allright like D. lasianthera, but the flower... Unfortunately only one flower opened, the other buds dried up when I wasn't able to water a couple of weeks ago.
Anyone know what it might be?

Do any of the canes have fine black hairs covering them?

Den. sanderae var luzonicum x sib is a plant i have that i think is very close- i will go and take pics as it is also in bloom

No, there are no fine black hairs visible

Yes, Dendrobium sanderae luzonicum could be the one, thanks

I got a real D. l. in the mean time anyway :biggrin: Still I would prefer to have a 'Sepik Blue'. Maybe I'll find one some day...

here is my little guy
