Default Antelope Dendrobiums...

Curious as to who else are fascinated by these wonderful Dendrobiums. I have a few crosses forming pods right now and plan to flask and raise them. Post pics if you have any and I'll do the same.

Your dens are awesome!
I'm fascinated with the antelopes but I simply cannot grow a healthy den.

I got Blue Sparkle from a member of my orchid society in a collection division. It's over 4 feet tall and blooms year round. I have won ribbons in every show that I have showed it in. It's a really nice plant that I believe was a cross made back in the 80's. Definitely one of my favorites.

I love antelop Dens, but they don't really exist over here. I'm drooling over yours, especially the Blue Sparkle!

I have many more antelopes also. A lot of the species too. I'll see if I can find some more pics and post them. Thanks again to everyone.

The antelopes are my favorite orchids in general. I think it's a combination of being from an area where their culture was very easy for me, how rewarding they are when they're happy, and the general weirdness of the flowers. I will try to get some pics of mine and figure out posting them, most of mine are in bloom now or just going out/coming in.
I have a Blue Sparkle, not a named cultivar, not in bloom ATM and I don't have pics- like yours better as it is curlier, though mine is a recent aquisition so maybe will improve.
Love the Chan-Chao and Ong Hock Chy!
