My Tiny Garden - Dendrobium Stardust 'Chiyomi' orchid

Few months ago I bough this lovely orchid. I was so surprised to see it in a regular supermarket. They don't have those type of orchids there. Usually just the regular Phalaenopsis and Cymbidiums.

There was just one and of course I had to get it! Look at those pretty red veining on the lip and a bit of fuzzy fur!

She grows a bit weird though. I am used to that they do grow new baby plants along the cane (they are called Keikis). But this one created a new one from the tiny stem where flowers were! That is completely new to me. Oh no, I am not complaining. After they get a little big bigger I can detach them and have 2 more plants :)
