help choosing appropriate bulbo for growing
hey guys,
i'm just wondering, what are some bulbophyllum species/hybrids that: (1) appear not to have any rhizome (not leggy) (2) windowsill growing possible (3) the lack of an extreme scent (4) doesn't grow huge (as in per pseudobulb basis) i really like ones that are star shaped like lobbii, dearei, and sumatranum. but i am now sure if these could be brought into bloom... or even if they could survive the windowsill... any bulbophyllum lovers care to chip in your $0.02? thanks i currently have 1 cirrhopetalum lepidum and is growing 2 new leads--the one lead last year didn't make it for some reason... just turned black and died =( is that a rot issue or a lack of humidity issue? this is it from last year, can't take credit for spiking it --at least i don't think so... i bought in bloom, but this second flowering came about a month after the original bloom faded... http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s...akoyanum12.jpg |
Bulbophyllum catenulatum (mini)
Bulbophyllum elassoglossum (mini - is a bit leggy but not really) Bulbophyllum pardalotum (same as above) Bulbophyllum alagense (mini) Bulbophyllum tixieri (mini) Bulbophyllum macranthum (medium sized, very short rhizome) Bulbophyllum psychoon (mini - they're not star shaped though) Bulbophyllum monilliforme (micro-mini) Bulbophyllum taiwanense (mini - super rare) |
If you're into Cirrhopetalum types:
Bulbophyllum purpurascens Bulbophyllum fenestratum (medium sized) Bulbophyllum cf. lepidum Bulbophyllum japonicum (rare) Bulbophyllum niphodii (rare) If you're into other miscellaneous minis: Bulbophyllum ovalifolium Bulbophyllum odoratissimum (smells good) Bulbophyllum trichocepalum (smells good) Bulbophyllum stenobulbon Bulbophyllum sp. 'Rosary Beads" Bulbophyllum membranaecum If you like other Bulbo relatives: Trias picta Trias disciflora Trias nasuta Trias mollis Trias intermedia Trias rosea Take your pick they're all not that "leggy". |
