on November 30, 2016I doubt if this is Dendrobium moschatum which is recorded from 600m only. There are some 26 species of Dendrobium recorded from Nepal - though only a small number grow above 2700m. I am not familiar enough with then genus to comment further - perhaps in the future I will be able to suggest which species this is. Perhaps an orchid specialist will comment before then.
