Dendrobium Aust. Colourfest — Cobber 'Lavender & Lime' × Jesmond Sparkler 'Greg Hall' is an Australian native Dendrobium seedling cross (cross number 5895) bred from two star-shaped, spidery-form parents. Cobber 'Lavender & Lime' contributes bold magenta-pink flowers with a white-and-yellow centre; Jesmond Sparkler 'Greg Hall' is a multi-flowered clone in warm yellow-orange with fine red veining. The photographs show the parent plants — flower colour and form will vary across individual seedlings.
