Hi Kajari

This is a Dendrobium nobile.

Distribution
N.E. India (Sikkim) to S. China and south to Laos and Thailand; grows in full sun at altitudes up to 1,500m.

Many varieties and hybrids of this species have been described and it is probably the most commonly cultivated of all Dendrobium species.

Regards
Loot
