Bulb. dearei 'Matt'
The flowers on this Bulbophyllum are so unusual and complex that they are beautiful. I got this plant from the late Wilbur Chang.

This is lovely. I have a bulbo -just the one, but I think that I am definitely going to have to add to my collection now.

Mel - That has got to be one of the nicest Bulb. dearei's that I have ever seen. The color is incredible. Wilbur really knew his Bulbos, he will be terribly missed in the orchid world.

This varietal received an AM in 2003 in Vermont. It somehow found its way into Wilbur's collection. Fortunately for many of us on the island, Wilbur brought many of his blooming divisions to society meetings where he sold them at a very reasonable price. This was one that I picked up from him. Almost all the bulbophyllums that I have came from him. He was a good friend and mentor who I sorely miss.
