Maharastra.
Thanks for sharing. This should be the smallest flower for Dendrobium in India I assume.


Yes, Bhimashankar is in Maharashtra, around 130KM from Pune. Reasonably good forest cover.


Nice catch of a small Epiphytic Orchid

Dendrobium herbaceum Lindl.
at Bhimashankar Wildlife Sanctuary on 05 NOV 11


Yes very pretty and may be the smallest flower on the longest stems. We have two forms in Jharkhand, one with red-brown stem like this and another with yellow-green stem.


Beautiful find.
Some description from different sources:
   mentum present🙁 All Dendrobiums except D. lawianum)
  (mentum – a projection like a chin formed by the sepals and base of the column in some orchids)
Flowers small. Stem copiously branched.
Nicely seen here
