Dendrobium uniflorum

Native to a wide swath of Southeast Asia this hot to cool growing epiphyte has one inch pastel green and white flowers with three to five red stripes in the center of the lip. The canes can get tall with time and the leaves are arranged in a perfect plane going up the canes. What is really nice about this species is that it is flowering basically year round putting out flowers all along the canes over a long time period and often in clusters of 2-6 flowers at a time. This plant is continually growing throughout the year. It is a really easy plant to grow and flower. The present plants are 10-15 inches tall. These can even flower at the base of the growths. The flowers have a nice spicy fragrance.
