Grumpy 'George' is a cultivar of the registered RHS hybrid \u003cem\u003eDockrillia\u003c\/em\u003e Grumpy (\u003cem\u003eDendrobium\u003c\/em\u003e Aussie Phil × \u003cem\u003eDendrobium striolatum\u003c\/em\u003e), selected by George Dimos and known for its large, broad-segmented flowers with strong striation. The pollen parent, \u003cem\u003eDockrillia schoenina\u003c\/em\u003e 'Compact', is a selected form of the Common Pencil Orchid — a terete-leafed species native to eastern Australia from the NSW coast to central Queensland, typically producing yellowish-green flowers blotched with dark purple, in cascading sprays during winter and spring. The 'Compact' cultivar name signals a more restrained growth habit than the species normally produces, which is a useful trait to introduce into a cross. Together, these two parents bring significant striation from the Grumpy side and the distinctive colour character of \u003cem\u003eschoenina\u003c\/em\u003e — seedlings could show a range of outcomes, but dark markings and good flower presence are reasonable expectations. Suited to mounting or basket culture with a dry winter rest and good airflow. Also listed as \u003cem\u003eDockrillia\u003c\/em\u003e by Australian growers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You'll Receive\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEstablished seedlings in 66mm pots, grown in the Dandenong Ranges.
