Bulb. grandiflorum Male
Default Bulb. grandiflorum
The bloom looks like a shy guy preventing me from taking a photo.
We here call it the goose bulbophyllum because its lateral view resembles the head of a goose.

Wow, interesting. I assume the bloom is not fully open yet?

I can't believe it, it's me as an orchid! Although the chid is much better looking.

I might have to track this one down!

Nice! I'm getting on of these for my birthday (along w/a few other plants), can't wait! How's the scent. I know it's described as odd.

The flower of this species is semi-open, Tindo.
It is odorless but some books describe it smells stinky.
