Dendrobium thyrsiflorum & Friend

[Gin]

I bought the thyrsiflorum year before last from a large nursery mail order, it was supposed to be in a 3 or 4 inch pot when it arrived more like 8 inch but with no sign of ever having bloomed I thought oh oh one of the non blooming type lol . It surprised me has 3 in bloom spikes .
The second picture is Oriental Smile I recieved it as a gift from a good friend, which makes it special . Thanks for looking ... Gin

Love the thyrsiflorum Gin...well done!
I too have this one but may I suggest that now you mastered this one you get your hands on Den. Mousmee. It is stunning and grows and looks almost the same but with a pink flush to the flower and on some, almost deep pink with the yellow labellum.
Take a look at this link for the flower.


Again, well done and from a collector of Indian Dendrobiums I must say...once you get one you must try the rest!!!!
Cheers
