Dendrobium brachypus

Dendrobium brachypus, commonly known as the Norfolk Island orchid, is a flowering plant in the orchid family. The specific epithet comes from the Greek brachys (“short”) and podos (“foot”), alluding to the relatively short pseudobulb, in contrast to that of Dendrobium macropus described by Endlicher at the same time.
