Dendrobium cumulatum.
After the Genus Bulbophyllum, Dendrobium has the greatest number of species. This genus has always caused problems for taxonomist because of the extreme morphological diversity both in the flowers and vegetative parts.
I'm not sure of the name of this one shown here, but I no longer have it in my collection. Have attached a close-up image of one of he flowers. Hopefully someone will be able to help with the name.
Thanks to Gary for identifying this species.

Dendrobium sp.
Hi Bernabu,
This looks to me to be an example of Dendrobium cumulatum, a widespread and varible species from India, throughout Southeast Asia to Sarawak.
Cheers.
Gary
