*GASP* I bloomed an Bulbo!!!
After about 5 years of having a few of these and killing MANY more...I finally bloomed a little tiny one! WOOT! I will have to post a picture of it once it's fully opened...I'm so excited!! I've got about 20 things in bloom right now...a freaking record for me!

Congratulations Teresa. It is always exciting to get even a simple orchid to bloom, even more exciting to get something more exotic to cooperate! Carol

Way to go, Teresa! I've never bloomed a Bulbo myself. I have just one of them now, a longissimum, and it seems to be holding it's own so far. :

Way to go, Teresa! Bulbos are really rewarding. Now that you've gotten the hang of it, I bet a few more make it into your collection. And 20 bloomers at once is fantastic! Good growing!

OMG I can't believe the name of this plant, LOL! Bulb PUrple Pervert (Fascinator x Affine)....too funny. Well I took a picture yesterday...here it is! Very cool bloom!
Check out the little "hairs" around the edge of the two upper flaps...they have little things on the end of them as well.
