Diplocaulobium pulvilliferum 'Halcyon' Male
Default Diplocaulobium pulvilliferum 'Halcyon'

This small plant flowers frequently (about once a month). A single pseudobulb blooms multiple times. But I couldn't see the open flower until now (it bloomed at least 4 times before this photo). The flower remains open only for a couple hours, and the delicate flower wilted before the end of the day. I believe that the species is from montane forests of New Guinea. If you have pointers to culture/biology of this species, I'd like to know. It seems to be an easy grower, though.

The color of the 1st photo is slightly exaggerated, and the 2nd and 3rd photos are more of the real color.

I don't know much about this species. It's a division from Troy Meyers's plant. But mine seems to be pinker than his photos. The lip seems to be quite different from IOSPE PHOTOS:




Can anyone comment on the ID?
