These plants are wonderful plants for semi-shaded areas. Commonly known as Dendrobiums although there has been a recent name change to Thelychitons which is being largely ignore.Sadly, while the more common orchids such as cymbidiums are very well known, the native orchid is one of the greatest horticultural treasures waiting to be found. They produce masses of small orchid flowers from August to October each year and 2009 has been one of the best flowering years ever. Some of them are very sweetly perfumed &, if looked at closely in strong light sparkles can be seen in the petals. In spite of their delicate appearance & perfume they are tough as nails.
