Posting a couple photos of Bulbophyllum biflorum. It seems to always have some blooms. hard to photograph since the flowers are spread around the dish and hidden under leaves. I don't think it has a fragrance

Linda - I'm glad you posted this because you gave me a piece of this in February and I forgot to get the name. Now mine is blooming and I know what it is! Mahalo!

How are you growing this one? Got a division a couple months ago, keeping it in a growing tank for now, but hoping maybe it can handle a windowsill... what's your opinion?

looks amazing as all of your plants!

I'm not a very good person to ask! Mine are mostly in flat dishes, and they have different potting media--bark, coconut, mixtures of all, even trying one in peat moss. They hang in the trees--I don't have a shade house--I try to keep them somewhat damp but am not always good at it. Some bloom frequently, some not. Most grow into decent plants even if they don't bloom. I think they can actually take quite a lot of filtered light. Probably not full sun, which mine don't get. I don't know what one would need to do to grow inside. Lucky I live Hawaii!

Good Luck
