    Default Dendrobium infundibulum ( "small" caned version)

    I have two versions of this species ; this is the "small caned version , although in fact the canes are half a metre high. But then the large caned one has canes twice the height.
    Big flowers too, some 5 inches tip-to-toe ( north-south).
    I have grown this species S/H and had far more flowers than here . In fact all my plants have been too dry over the winter, deliberately or unavoidably, so probably not shown at its possible best, here.

    Now hardly to get the above species here in Malaysia some more short cane type ( so rare) I only saw long canes need a lot of space for this wonderful species. Great job Geoff.

    Beautiful.. Its hybrid, Dend Formidable (formosum x infundibulum) also looks very similar, equally tall but is more heat tolerant. Sometimes difficult to distinguish between the two.

    I have that hybrid in my collection, and my example grows with much thicker canes, and more flowers per spray, and is a better plant , horticulturally.
