Bulbophyllum lasiochilum
This one blooms for me every year. I have another dark form that has yet to bloom this year, but I've got my fingers crossed!

The dark one, which hasn't bloomed yet, smells like Strawberries. This one had very little scent at all...

Love this Bulbo, gorgeous bloom! I've got this and the dark one too (which hasn't spiked yet). I usually have better luck with these in the summer months. Laura, are you growing these outdoors?

Tom, I seem to remember that you had an almost white form with the spots. If not you then somebody else posted photos of their white one. I have both the dark and the one like LaraN's yellow one but would give my eye teeth for one like that white one. |

Tom, it seems that we are never happy with what we have got  That is why plastic surgeons are so rich. I would love a white one and you would love a dark one! I have 4 plants of it, two of which have never flowered so maybe there is hope.
Keep well and kind regards
Mike |
