Bulb pulchellum var purpureum 'Pololei'
This just arrived from Brian (IncredibleOrchids)...hard to get a good picture of the very small blooms but it looks great! The mount weighs a ton and is covered with fine healthy moss...the roots are growing like crazy!
I love it 
Thanks Brian 
I'll work on getting a better picture tomorrow...when it's warmer!  |

With all that water that moss holds, Im sure it is heavier!! Keep that moss alive Sue!! It will be your indicator.
I love the foliage, and so far I love the color of the blooms, I will be anxiously awaiting future pics

I got my Bulb. thaiorum with moss and little ferns on the mount too. I was able to keep one fern sort of alive, while the moss has spread like wildfire all over my orchidarium!!!!
