Dendrobium moniliforme / Sekkoku セッコク

 

Dendrobium moniliforme is a perennial orchid that inhabits rocks or trunks by spreading and sticking many roots. Stems are in bundles, with a height of 10-30cm, and have many nodes, and each internode has many streaks. Leaves are alternate, each lanceolate thick, approximately 5cm long, lasting a few years. Flowers, one or two in number, white to light pink, bloom at the nodes having lost leaves. Lips are a bit shorter than sepals and petals. Bloom time: May-June.
