Is it just me, but the Dendro scabrilingue looks like it's sticking it's tongue to me.

Really love the Catasetum Susan Fuchs

Hi guys,

khoas, sbabrilingue and unicum do have a slight fragrance in the morning but lamyaiae is scentless. the best smelling dendrobium in my opinium is dendro anosmum.

amelie, the tongue/lip changes color from light yellow to orange. when the flower is fully mature it will turn orange.

kentosaurs, not expert yet la. still learning and practising what are being taught by a few sifus...

kentosaurs, love the name,I still learning and killing orchids.

Harris just ask about your denbro. because I only grow kinganium, the Queensland rock orchid. It has much smaller flowers than your species but does have quite strong sweet scent in the morning.
