Bulbophyllum tingabarinum
 

This one is just starting so fingers crossed and I should have a few succession shots.

Cool! This is such a nice species, look forward to seeing it in bloom. Current accepted name is pecten-veneris, BTW, though almost every vendor still sells it as tingabarinum... ;)

i absolutely love this species!!! cant wait to see pictures of the blooms!

Word of caution, if you haven't bloomed this one before: avoid splashing the spike when watering, and be careful to keep it especially protected from drafts, i.e. fan breezes. I blasted many spikes on mine until I figured this out. ;) -Stephen

Thank you everyone.

I did not know about the name or about the blooms sensitivity to wind and water. I will keep you all posted of the outcome.

She's all opened up :)

Good job! How cool is that. I love the species. Thanks for the before and after pics.

Looks good. Any scent on these?

Awesome! :wtg:

Good job! It looks unusual, but amazing! It's nice to follow its flowering! Thanks for the pictures. I'd love to plant it as well....

Congratulations . It looks great with all it's buddies.

Nice bloom!!!
 

Like this alot, thanks for posting :D

could getting the spikes wet have anything to do with the spikes not having color? i purchased a B. tingabarnium and it yielded white flowers instead of the traditional orange. i was slightly bummed.

No, probably not the cause of white flowers.
