I am confused now if it is an orchids or not. I have deleted my plant app because it was not functioning well and so I am looking for a new plant app to upload. I got this plant from my son for Mother’s Day. The leaves and the branches are looking like that of an orchids but the flowers is a bit different. I think I should ask my sister what kind of plant it is. She is working in the orchids company in the Netherlands. Anyway, it is still a beautiful plant and I love it. How’s your day? Tomorrow, Thursday, is Father’s Day in Germany. I don’t know yet if my son will come tomorrow for dinner or lunch. Well, we are at home anyway. Thanks for reading. Have a nice week to all. Take care and keep safe.

Thank you very much @CarolDM. Dendrobium orchids is what my sister told me last night when I asked her on fb.after posting the discussion here on Mylot. This is the same link I have read after that. What plant ID App are you using? I used Plantsnap app last time but it was not working well and so I deleted it.

The leaves and stem certainly look like an orchid. I've never seen a flower like that though. Either way you hit the jackpot!

I cannot tell as I am weak in this. I had a good week. It would be unfair if your son doesn't come on father's day as he came on the mother's day
