Dendrobium tipuliferum (Syn. Diplocaulobium)
This is a very cool and uncommon species with long, slender pseudobulbs and leaves that give it more of a grass appearance than a orchid! Flowers appear at anytime throughout the year from the leaf bract. Flowers are a lovely star shape with shades of yellow, cream and red but are very short lived (rarely more than 12 hours). Their appearance is a real treasure! Available as blooming size plants in 2'' pots.
