    Red face Dendrobium Tannii

    Name:  Dendrobium Tannii.jpg
Views: 1951
Size:  199.0 KB I found this beautiful Dendrobium at the Maryland Orchid Society show and sale last weekend. I have never seen a Dendrobium that blooms from the bottom like this. The blooms are so unique as well. They look almost like a cactus bloom.
    Simply have to stop buying orchids, I am totally addicted.

    Nice! Congrats on a neat dendro buy! They have been top on my buy list lately.

    You know you get no support for not buying orchids here! We are all enablers to each other.

    Very pretty. If you like this one you would also like a similar looking Dendrobe, Den bracteosum with slightly smaller flowers with colours ranging from white to dark pink

    Looks awesome. Agree with Yew Sung. Looks like Dend. bracteosum. I have a small alba form of it may be it would bloom next season.

    don't think you can get any help here on not buying orchids. more colelctions/species we see, most of us would be tempted to buy more.

    Dendr. tannii is just a variety of Dendr. bracteosum. The flowers are bigger and are more open.

    Very nice....I have a cactus collection also. I tend not to repot them as often as orchids for obvious reasons. The blooms are spectacular.
