DENDROBIUM and DENDROCHILUM

| In addition to a large variety of species Dendrobium, Thailand produces many attractive man-made hybrids such as this one. (Above and below) |
| Old Roy here (above and below) became a hot item on the market a few years back. It is a reliable and profuse bloomer. The plant stays in bloom for a long period of time too. |
| The densiflorum is endemic to the 1000-2000 meter level of the Himalayas and is found in India, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanamar, Thailand, and China. As the name implies, it produces dense clusters of blooms. |
