Dendrobium fibriatum

Dendrobium fibriatum, originally uploaded by asawusch.

I was amazed that this species dendrobium bloomed for me as late as 2009. I loved the frilly lip and the dark 'eye'. You can't see from this photo but it was growing on a teak crate. It really wanted to be hanging from a tree somewhere warm. The beauty of orchids that are not 'orchid color'. Yes. I miss these guys. But my current location just isn't what they need.
