Dendrobium spectabile var. flavus
 

This is one of those where beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. The flowers are very fragrant. I have this plant growing with the rest of my dendrobiums under 50% shade cloth.

It's beautiful. Love love the flowers!!

Very nice

Wonderful colour. Looks a bit more compact than the type. Is this a maiden blloming?

This is a selfing of the yellow form of Den. spectabile. I prefer this color over the standard form.

Nice to know. I have a seedling, also a selfing, which needs about another 18 months to blooming. Also compact grower and mine seems to branch well on the rhizome. O agree, the clear colour in this quirrelly form is truly stunning. All the pattern of the non-flavas makes for a real muddle, visusally.
