Dendrochilum bicallosum and Ddc convallariaeforme are now considered to be synonyms with Ddc convallariaeforme being the accepted name.
Dendrochilum convallariaeforme is another Philippine example of this group of orchids that can lead to serious addiction. The two-row often flesh-pink flower racemes spiral outwards in a semi-pendulous manner adding even more to the attractiveness. The white plastic plant label tag gives an indication of the size. Like its group members, it needs warm, moist conditions and should be grown in sphagnum moss.
Negatives: Not suitable for cool zones unless grown in a heated glasshouse.
