Bulbophyllum vaginatum first time blooming!

[Hazeldazel]

I bought this Bulbophyllum vaginatum from Gold Coast Orchids at the SF Orchid Show in July 2023, now it's blooming for the first time! Last year it had a lot of new growth and it is blooming from most of those new pseudobulbs - 6 blooms and one bud that hasn't opened yet.

Growing in medium bark in a 3 inch net pot inside my IKEA Milsbo cabinet with ~45 watt lights, stays in the upper 70's with ~50-70%RH depending on when I've watered.

Congratulations on your first bloom! Those flowers are wild-looking.
