Dendrobium NOID I call it Fruit Salad
Its a nobile orchid hybrid, , rather big canes - 18 inch to 1/2 meter tall, and I bought it from a German Orchid trader at a London Show a few years ago. He spun me a wonderful line about how the cross could never be re-made ( didn't understand why not) and promised to e-mail the proper name - which he never did. I find the colouring very unusual, which of course is why I bought it. It was in a 4 or 5 inch pot, absolutely root bound, and I had to saw the pot to get it out. I am in the process of propagating , not to increase the numbers so much, as to get young plants full of canes ready to flower.... Flowers btw about 3 inches.
If anyone does have a name, I would be happy to hear .
