Dockrillia linguiformis (or Dendrobium linguiforme) is an epiphytic or lithophytic species native to the east coast of Australia. Around Sydney, it is usually found growing on large sandstone boulders in shaded sclerophyll forest or on Casuarina next to estuaries. The species forms small fleshy leaves that are able to withstand the frequent summer dry spells. In spring, it sends up an attractive raceme with white flowers.
