An interesting Dockrillia (Dendrobium). I obtained this plant from a Dockrillia collector who originally purchased it as a subspecies of Dockrillia (Dendrobium) wassellii. The canes are much thinner than the Dockrillia wassellii that I have seen — more like a Dockrillia (Dendrobium) striolata in diameter, but with grooves. It grows intermediate, with very bright light (direct sun in winter), with my Dockrillia wassellii. If anyone has input on the identification of this orchid, please feel free to contact me.
