Dendrobium is a very large and diverse orchid species which is found mostly in the tropical and sub-tropical areas of Asia, South Pacific. More than 1,000 species make this the second-largest orchid genus. Most dendrobium orchids selling in Vietnam are Dendrobium phalaenopsis which are imported from Thailand. Vietnamese dendrobium species are grown by private orchid collectors.
Dendrobium nobile, Dendrobium phalaenopsis, and Dendrobium bigibbum are three popularly grown Dendrobium species which have been used extensively in hybridizing. Most Dendrobium orchids in the flower markets are hybrids from these Dendrobium species. Vietnam has many Dendrobium species. Recently, a Vietnamese orchid collector found a new dendrobium species that was named after him: Dendrobium tuananhii.
