Congrats on your new baby!

Yeah, there are ones that are so rancid that a person could vomit upon smelling it (it has happened before, thankfully not to me). Then there are ones that are smelly, but tolerable. There are ones that only have a bad smell if you stick you nice right in them. There are many that don't even smell of anything, and even some that smell good!

I havent smelled this one in action but you all are wimps if you go for the non-stinky ones, joking. Thats one of the fun parts. Try an Amorphophallus konjac on a nice sunny day. Nothing beats that in my opinion.

I've smelled one group of these in bloom at a local nursery, and it will be the last time for me. I couldn't hide that in the toilet. But, I wish any who do grow them much luck.

Gotta love all Bulbos equally!!!!

I absolutely love bulbos. It seems that most of my collection has turned into bulbos. My first bulbo was supposed to be a Bulbophyllum fascinator, but everything about the plant tells me it isn't. Guess I'll have to wait until it blooms.

My Bulbohyllum Louis sander is in bloom now. The blooms just opened yesterday. I think they smell like papertowels. I know that's weird, but it's true. I also have a vaginatum in spike. Can't wait to see the blooms.

Please post some pics of them blooming, so we can enjoy them with you!

I will make a new post for the Louis sander a little bit later after I get settled in for the night. I will post the vaginatum blooms when it blooms. Hopefully soon.
