Dendrobium schoeninum

Dendrobium schoeninum

D. schoeninum flowers start out mostly white or pale green and may age to cream, yellow or even slightly pink. The white frilly lip usually is marked with purple but only along the very edges of the frills. The plant is readily identified even when not in flower by the quite robust upright terete leaves and generally upright growth. Although when the growth becomes very long it may start bending down under its own weight.
