Some earlier relevant feedback:
Dendrobium aphyllum - from Smita ji. |
This is a Dendrobium species. More likely D. primulinum or D. aphyllum with slight variation from both the species. The thick stem, no. of flowers at each node, leaf shape, undulate petals do not support this as D. aphyllum. Further, Dendrobium primulinum does not have the undulate petals. C.M. Sabapathy from CNH, Kolkata may through some light on its identification. Regards Dinesh

This is extraordinary. Actually flower and stem both doesnt match with either D. aphyllum or D. primulinum. or D. cretaceum or D. polyanthum. |
Labellum doesnt look so hairy. The closest match I can imagine is Dendrobium tortile (with slight variation). THIS IS A VERY INTERESTING FINDING. Best regards Pankaj |
This may be the albino form of Dendrobium aphyllum but the undulate form of petals is somwhat confusing. |
With regards Dr. Krishna Chowlu |
Ofcourse not !! Dear Krishna please look at the stem, forget the flowers !!!Pankaj |
