Den nobile varieties?
 
It's nobile time!! My Den. nobiles are budding up and soon the show will
begin.

I have two different plants that have a tag that says nobile on them. The
first one has thin canes about the size of a pencil that has three flowers
per very short stem. The second is fat like a cigar that has single flowers
along the stem.

Are these just variation of the same species?

Good Growing,
Gene

Could the second one be D. parishii?

Den nobile varieties?
 
I don't think so. It came from an expert at the US Botanical Gardens.
Also, I've seen lots of the ones in the stores that have the cigar sized
canes that are labled nobile.

I have parishii and the flowers are different too.

My nobile is thin at the base but closer to cigar-size for the upper half of
the pseudobulb. If one of your plants is as thin as a pencil all the way
along the pseudobulb then that one is probably a different species.
