Dendrobium grootingsii






Dendrobium grootingsii J.J.Sm., Bull. Jard. Bot. Buitenzorg, II, 25: 33 (1917).This name is accepted.

Distribution: Borneo


Charles and Susan Wilson, Atlanta Judging Center, award number 20113240



Dendrobium grootingsii, award  20113240, has been confirmed to be Dendrobium grootingsii by SITF (Feb 2012) with assistance of Andre Schuiteman and Peter O’ Byrne.  Please add something to the description that says something like this: this specimen has flowers that are larger than both D. heokhuii and D.grootinsii, and has features of both species, which may be determined in the future to be synonyms. This way someone could search for both species in the future and we could amend the award if need be.
