D. fimbriatum.—This plant is extremely beautiful, and 
is considered one of the very best of the Dendrobiums. It 
attains a height of from 2ft. to 5ft.; the pseudo-bulbs 
are stout and woody, the upper half furnished, when 
young, with green leaves about 6in. long. The racemes 
are pendulous from the top of the ripened stems, each 
bearing from six to twelve blossoms; the flowers are from 
2in. to 3in. across, of a thin and delicate texture throughout, 
and deep, rich orange in colour, the margin of the rounded 
lip being beautifully bordered with a_ golden, moss-like 
fringe. It requires the same treatment as D. Dalhousieanum, 
and blossoms during the months of March and April, the 
same stems producing flowers for several seasons in 
succession. A specimen bearing 123 racemes and 1216 
flowers has been grown in England. D. fimbriatum is a 
native of Northern India, whence it was_ introduced 
In 1822. 
Paxton’s Magazine of Botany, i1., 172. 
Var. oculatum differs from the type in having the 
flowers blotched in the centre with deep maroon-purple. 
It is sometimes cultivated under the erroneous name of 
D. Paxton.
