Dear Smita ji

Thank you very much for the ID suggestion of my Orchid, it's flower is smaller than C. peduncularis, but very close.  My ID #77 is of C. peduncularis identified by you.

With kind regards, Sam.

Cottonia peduncularis  has very long peduncles inflorescence axis about  60 to 70 cm & then Cottonia has only one species so my identification was wrong I have hurried without watching pictures properly

Dear Garg ji,

Thank you very much for forwarding my request for identification, with kind regards, Sam.

Wonderful pictures :P...

It is always advisable to please take some time to take pictures, from multiple angles and good closeups. 

Otherwise you wont be able to get your plants identified.

I think this is Diplocentrum congestum, but not easy to make out.

Best regards

Pankaj

Dear Pankaj ji,

Yes, it is, thank you very much for ID my Orchid.   Only one individual was growing there too height so that it doesn't easy to capture in more angles, and raining also, so I spent more time than as usual.  Not only this, all flowers are attacked by caterpillar.

With kind regards, Sam.
