Dendrobium truncatum

I recently remounted this miniature dendrobium and attached it onto a tree branch.  It is doing quite well and flowers all the time.  I think the improved ventilation is good for the plant.  I like this dendrobium because it has a cute little pseudobulb about the size of a small shallot and the flowers are also small and cute.
 
 

Coelogyne trinervis

This is an easy orchid to grow in singapore and flowers frequently in our climate.  This plant came from Chiang Mai and this is its first flowering here.  Unlike my other trinervis plants, this one has flowers with white instead of cream colored petals.  The markings on the lip is also deeper in color.
