Dendrobium crumenatum
Commonly called Pigeon Orchid, Purse-Shaped Dendrobium, Bag-Shaped Dendrobium. It produces white, 5cm wide, fragrant flowers with a yellow tinted throat. The bloom cycle is triggered 9 days after a sudden drop in temperature (at least 5.5 °C or 10 °F), usually as a result of rain, although the same effect can be artificially created. Dendrobium crumenatum flowers are fragrant, but only lasts for a day or two. Source: http://orchids.wikia.com/wiki/Dendrobium....
