dendrobium chrysotoxum var. suavissimum
 
This is an old plant I bought in 2006 from a show in Long Beach, CA. One of my favorites. At first I didn't grow it cool in winter and it didn't flower for me for years. Then, for the last two years, I just let it stay outside in winter where temp drop down to 50/10c. It now flowers for me reliably every year around April/May.

It likes cold dry winter. We had a cold winter last years and most of these plants bloom well this spring.
My plant bloomed in last month.
