Dendrobium polyanthum
Smile Dendrobium polyanthum


I bought it about a month ago, bought it as a leaf does not, about a week later, the flower buds begin to erupt and they hatch about two weeks later, flavor and beautiful color
trees are exploited in the northern mountainous regions of Vietnam and it is the seller's shipping orchids for sale in southern
Found in the Chinese Himalayas, Assam, Eastern Himalayas, India, Nepal, Western Himalayas, Andaman Islands, Myanamar, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam at elevations of 1000 to 1800 meters as a small sized, warm to cool growing epiphyte with 6 to 12" [15 to 30 cm] long, clustered, to 12" [to 30 cm] long, pendant, ridged psuedobulbs that are whitish with purple stripes carry 6 oblong-lanceolate, leathery, deciduous leaves that blooms in the late winter and spring from opposite the leaves on nodes of leafed and leafless stems and are .5" [1.25 cm] long and carry a single, fragrant, long-lasting flower

Very commonly found as D cretaceum, but D polyanthum has precedence. This species and D primulinum are also cited as conspecific but I have left them separate at this time.

Synonyms Callista cretacea (Lindl.) Kuntze 1891; Dendrobium cretaceum Lindl. 1847;

Beautiful orchid, hoanglong! I have a plant labeled D. cretaceum that looks fairly different, overall a smaller plant with the flower being mostly white and having a somewhat different lip. I'm glad you rescued this one!
