Dendrobium linguella
Dendrobium species I've had years, has several long canes, hanging at the top of the greenhouse. I took the picture this morning and when I went to get the name of the tag, it just crumbled in my hand. I know it's had several name changes over the years.
What might help in the ID of this plant,is the large swollen greenish mentum at the back of the flower, which has an overall pinkish blush.
p.s. Many thanks to pawpaw and pak sheikh for identifying this species.
