Dendrobium boridiense

Dendrobium boridiense Ormerod is a New Guinea orchid published in Ormerod's Checklist of Papuasian Orchids (2017). The epithet appears to refer to Boridi, a locality in the mountains of Papua New Guinea's Central Province. We found no habitat or altitude notes and there are no wild GBIF records, so this profile gives warm-to-intermediate epiphytic Dendrobium care and should be adjusted once the plant's collection altitude is known.
