Bulbophyllum plumatum

Really nice clone, Howard. Can you get a good division out of your plant in spring? I can offer a good trade for a piece of this specific clone...

Thanks for the compliments. I got this from a gentleman in West Virginia about 2 years ago. I doubt he has any left because he told me at the time I got mine, it was one of his last divisions. He may have more in the fall.

I hope to divide my plant sometime this summer. Currently, it is growing new pseudo bulbs. I have found that if you disturb Bulbophyllum when they are growing, it seems to arrest the new growth; just my observations and not necessarily true. I should have some small divisions later this year, so check back.
