Respected Sir

All my IDs for your Oberonias are tentative. As flowers are smaller and I cant see many characters.

I would say this is a small plant with nicely arranged leaves, one leaf sheathing the floral stalk, side lobes of the labellum arching and overlapping, hence this could be Oberonia seidenfadenii.

Thanks a lot for sharing.

Pankaj

Hi, Pankaj ji,

I think you mean to say Oberonia seidenfadeniana J.Joseph & Vajr. as Oberonia seidenfadenii (H.J.Su) Ormerod does not have any distribution in India.
