Renanthera, abbreviated as Ren in horticultural trade, is a genus of large scrambling monopodial epiphytic and terrestrial species found in China, the Himalayas, Southeast Asia, New Guinea, and Melanesia. Species in this genus produce a branched inflorescence containing numerous flowers ranging in color from yellow and orange to red.

Species in this genus usually require an intermediate to hot climate with good air movement and generally bright light. Their scrambling style of growth means they are best grown on a hanging mount or basket. If they are grown in pots there must be excellent drainage.-wiki

A word of warning regarding the purchase of thisspecies - I have bought plants labelled 

"Coel. pandurata" both from commercial nurseries and at auction which proved on flowering to be 

either Coelogyne mayeriana or the hybrid Coelogyne Burfordiensis (C. panduratax C. asperata).

The lip must be "fiddle shaped" & have black-purple, not brown(C. Burfordiensis)markings-

Dendrobium anosmum - orchid species with a powerful fragrance.

Dendrobium is commonly abbreviated as Den in horticulture.

One of the orchid species with a powerful fragrance is Dendrobium anosmum.

The Hawaiian name for Den anosmum is Hono hono. The Philippino name is Sanggumay which means "purple rain". 

Ironically, "Anosmum" in Latin means without scent. This species is native to New Guinea, the Phillippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand.

Den anosmum is an easy to grow epiphyte with long slender stems and short oblong leaves.

Sanggumays are preferably established on pieces of deadwood, coconut husks or attached to live trees. They have to be fastened firmly into the wood or coconut husk for their roots to grow and cling properly to the media. I prefer to hang them down as they do in nature- this way, the stems grow stronger.

Extract from sdorchids, with thanks – “The long slender pseudobulbs are said to grow to 3 meters (nearly 10 feet) in length. Each node generally produces 1-3 flowers. This fragrant orchid flowers smell much better during the morning hours and they bloom for about four weeks. A well grown pseudobulb can produce over 100 flowers.

The unbloomed nodes near the tip of the pseudobulbs and a few nodes just below the lowest flowers will start to produce keikis. A keiki may be removed from its parent plant when a good root system has developed in a couple of months.

The first-year's growth are usually no longer than one and one-half feet and do not flower. The next year's growths usually reach four feet long.”

One single inflorescence can produce over seventeen flowers, hence half a dozen can easily bear a hundred flowers.

Mine is deep purple, pink and white. These beautiful blooms can last for six months.

Phalaenopsis lueddemanniana, botanic - malaysia jungle orchid

Phalaenopsis lueddemanniana, botanic- species on the rare in Malaysia

Like most Phal orchids, Phalaenopsis lueddemanniana does not require a great deal of light (partial shade with some direct morning sun is best). It has to be kept moist and not wet. Drainage must be good and the medium should not completely dry out.

It needs good air movement and may be grown outside under lath or shaded by trees where here, the natural air movement is fine. For good drainage- use charcoal and bark fragments.  

Phalaenopsis lueddemanniana has oblong fleshy leaves and can be mounted on trunks or planted in pots. Stems are covered by imbricate foliar bases. The stem is to be cut only when withered.

It has a rather indeterminate blooming period, with purple stripe flowers which are long lasting up to eight weeks. Young plants easily form on the inflorescence (keiki /sons in hawaian) which can be removed once good rooting systems  are formed.
