A mini nobile-type species Dendrobium with a widespread distribution throughout Asia, which includes China, Western Himalayas, Nepal, eastern Himalayas, Assam, Myanmar, Vietnam, Korea, Ryukyus Islands and Taiwan.

This particular variety has taller canes (8 to 10 inches) than typical moniliforme.

They have a wonderful sweet fragrance and flower well after a cool/dry rest in the winter. However, intermediate/warm conditions can work and the plants will flower randomly throughout the year in smaller flower quantities.
