Growth Pattern of Bulbophyllum Elizabeth Ann Buckleberry
Hi guys,
I have a Bulbophyllum Elizabeth Ann Buckleberry from an orchid show 3 months ago. As far as I can tell it is doing well; there's about 5 or so bulbs and the leaves are green and sturdy. It's in a basket with sphagnum moss.
Can anyone tell me what is the growth pattern of this plant, as I have seen virtually no change from when I got it? Despite it being healthy (as far as I can tell). I hesitate to disturb it to see what's lying in the media.
Like, where do the bulbs grow from, what is the growth rate, where do flower spikes grow from, is there a dormancy period? etc.
I am growing it indoors over a humidity tray, being sure to keep the moss moist at all times. It's on a south facing window shelf. Sometimes subjecting it to a humidifier mist. It looks fine but also isn't showing any obvious new growth so I'm just wondering.
Thanks.
