I call this Comet King as I am sure this was the name on the label when I bought it for £3.00 two years ago?! Though I have seen ones listed as Comet Queen which look just like this, so whether or not there are two different ones created by the same Orchid house with slightly different shades and therefore names or someones misnaming them somewhere I do not know.

MY DENDROBIUM NOBILE COMET KING IN FLOWER

ORCHIDS IN MY WINDOW
Ah now this is end of March like the other video I just uploaded.
Now this was a weird one whereby I have a mirror image on both sides made up of one Dendbrobium kingianum type, one Dendrobium nobile type and one Zygopetalum. Every year the two Dendrobium types flower around January February and all at the same time on each side.
Yet you can see clearly in the video that this year the left side flowered first while the right side flowered much later and one even failed altogether?!
I then realise that we had precious little sunlight and we had a couple of afternoons of sunlight and no mornings. This window is south facing and so an afternoon sund would hit the left side whereas a morning sun woulf hiut the right side.
This kind of threw me somewhat as they all get watered the same and fed the same so I was like 'wft?!' Lol!
My cream Dendrobium kingianum (labelled as such when I purchased it is in full flower here but I expected more flowers than this. Despite the fact there must be a hundred! Lol!
When I pan left to the Dendrobium Berry Oda (as labelled but obviously a hybrid kingianum) has but a few flowers left.
Oh and you can se that I have moved the Angry Wasp Orchid from upstairs in my bedroom to here?
My Cymbidiums have all ben placed in the garden now!

DENDROBIUM NOBILE COMET QUEEN
My Dendrobium nobile Comet Queen is in flower but unfortunately the other Dendrobium nobile only three feet to this ones right hand side decided not to flower?! Odd, obviously I did not starve that one long enough with water and must have accidentally watered it without thinking when in a rush some mornings?!
Damn it!! Lol!
Damn it!! Lol!

DENDROBIUM NOBILE ONE
A Dendrobium nobile I saved from certain death and started off with much less purple in the flowers when I first had it?!
Strange, lol.

Dendrobium nobile RED-PURPLE with ORANGE CENTRE
This is my second Dendrobium nobile and has an Orange Centre on a Reddish Purple flower.
I like Bamboo Orchids due to their growth and you can see that buds are appearing, I think there are about 7 of these but any that appear could have TWO flowers on one node.
In the other Dendrobium post you will note that there is two on one whereas the rest are single flowers.

Dendrobium nobile - White, Edged Purple BUDS
This is my original Dendrobium nobile and as you can see and like my cream kingianum this will be open in a couple of days.
This one has white flowers with purple petal tips.
