So here is what I got.

Two I got from RSS on this board,
One I got from Clackamass Orchids Inc, on ebay
and 4 from Sandstone Orchids and Nursery L.L.C.

The pics are in this order
B. blumei in bud!
B. lobbii 'Kathy's Gold' x B. dearei 'Red'.which I think I have already, not sure
B. siamense
B. sikkimensis
B. corolliferum

Sunipia bicolor
Not pictured is B. wendlandianum which I have growing at home.

So wish me luck with these. I'm gonna need it!! Most are seedlings.

Very nice and it's look very healthful .

I have one but cannot flower it! It grows well and I have taken at least two divisions off of it and given them to friends but so far none of us have flowered it. I have seen photos of it (possibly on Haru's page or on the University of Vienna website) and it looks a pretty Bulbophyllum. Good luck with yours.
