Dendrobium bowmanii, also known as the straggly pencil orchid, is a thin, wiry orchid with a few small leaves and up to four greenish or brownish flowers. It can be found in drier rainforests and coastal scrub in New South Wales, southern Queensland, and New Caledonia. This epiphytic or lithophytic herb has been recorded to hybridize with the cucumber orchid in rare cases. It was first described in 1873 and named after the collector of the type material, Edward Macarthur Bowman. The straggly pencil orchid blooms throughout the year, with peak flowering periods in August to November and February to June.
