Bulbophyllum Frank Smith
This plant was obtained from the late Wilbur Chang. It is a very robust grower. The plant is in a 6-inch plastic pot with New Zealand sphagnum moss as the media. The plant is grown in a shady area and kept damp. The back flower is just opening which accounts for its cupped shape. The flowers have a slight fragrance.
