This is why I love the Orchid Board!

First, I feel I must apologize to the OP of this post, since I really hijacked the post, so if/when I have further updates, I will just go ahead and start a new post. Since we are sort of all here...

In my overly-obsessive late-night/early morning research, my findings:

I am emailing John from LOC as we speak, and I have also asked Peter Lin at Big Leaf Orchids if he has/knows who may have any as well. I’ll let you all know if I find anything worthwhile. I have also...

But yes! The Dendrobium cucumerinum’s “pickles” are the leaves! I love them so much that I had to get two!
