hi, thanks for the input aquabodk. but when i dig into bulbophyllum forestii, came out another name that is mentioned there commonly mixed up with it is bulbophyllum helenae. after looking at the pics, it seems more like bulb helenae bucause of the lip. for bulb. forestii the lip is semi open and bulb. helenae is funnel shape as in mine. any opinions, i dun know much about bulbo, just that can see more similarity in bulb. helenae than bulb forestii.
