I rescued this orchid from an old garden (deceased estate) due to be bulldozed.
I think it is a Dendrobium. My guess a species or an early cv given the age of the estate. There were no "modern" plants growing on site, lots of empty terracotta pots that once held beauties I am sure.
Any help would be appreciated.
Sue (WeedWoman), this one is being posted off to you with the Coelogynes tomorrow.

Wayne I would say it is Dendrobium pierardii.
I have a small plant of it.
Take a look at

Thanks so much Marleneann!
I was certain that it was a species Dendrobium. A pretty little thing.
Looking forward to 3' canes!
