Finding
SITF confirms this plant as Dendrobium brassii (Jun 2025). The IOSPE has a good photo of this species. The partial description: "carrying a single, acute, green suffused with purple leaf...on a short, 2 flowered inflorescence arising at the apex of older leafless pseudobulbs" matches this plant. This plant shows purple suffusion on the reverse side of the single, acute leaf. The flowers bloom two to an inflorescence and the color is a match. The flowers on this plant do not open wide as shown in the IOSPE and some shown in the Internet. This results in a smaller measured N.S. The Orchids of New Guinea website, https://www.orchidsnewguinea.com/orchidinformation/species/speciescode/2310 contains an excellent photo and complete description of this species.
