Default Dendrochilum wenzelii

This dendrochilum is currently in full bloom in my greenhouse. The plant is about 17 inches tall. I estimate that there about 200 inflorescences (the most that its ever had). The flowers are deep red.

That is spectacular! What a beauty. I just love the color, and it's such a graceful plant.
I just bought my first dendrochilum, and I know it won't be my last
