Check out Dendrobium lichenastrum! This petite sized orchid is native to Australia, growing on trees and cliffs. The thick pseudobulbs (they look like the leaves) are an adaptation to conserve water during dry spells. It may be small but it sure is mighty! #SmithsonianGardens #PublicGarden #Orchids Video description: horticulturist wearing a maroon shirt holding a small orchid plant and describing it. | Smithsonian Gardens
