Dendrobium christyanum is from Thailand, Vietnam and China and
has huge flowers for the size of the plant. My plant is about 5 cm tall
and the flowers are about the same size. It belongs to the group of
Dendrobiums known as nigrohirsute
Dendrobiums, referring to the black hairs with which the plant is covered and it is sometimes found under the older name,
Dendrobium margaritaceum It blooms in the summer and is temperature tolerant. The flowers are fragrant.
Beautiful photos! The petals look like crystal.
