My Bulbo's
 
:waving
I decided today that I want a piece of my Bulbo rosary beads outside mounted on round tree fern slab, just because it will look cool, so I did it. When taking the pic, I took also few of my other Bulbo's, I know few people asked me before hod do I grow them or mount them. So here are newly mounted rosary beads, also, rufinum in big plastic basket, than ambrosia mounted on nice cork slab, shirley and sheryl kurizaky in small plastic baskets, my gorgeous medusae also in plastic, and small pardalotum I purchased just few months ago from Seattle Orchids and mounted on the tree fern slab. All happy with our Florida humid weather. I keep all Bulbo's pretty much moist at all times, when mounted I do use cork slabs or tree fern, when in baskets I use mix of small bark chips and sphagnum, medusae is in straight sphagnum for some 2 years and seems it is loving it! I recently got another 5 new Bulbos in my Thailand package, but the condition they arrived is not great, and so I do not post pics till they will recover, I hope:-)

Thanks Bud, yes, I must say I did struggle with quite a few species but Bulbo's love me and my balcony, especially because they are impossible to over water and that's what I love the most about them:-)

Thanks HighSeas, I do play with mounts more and more, trying to do different types, different ways. When I was in California, I got quite a few interesting small branches and also lot of Chola wood, which looks amazing as well, and with all little holes it is perfect for small orchids, so there will be more mounts with that one now:-)

hi Kim, and many thanks. May I ask how do you grow yours? I find Bulbo's actually to be the "easier one" to grow, if you provide conditions they need, the most important for most is to keep them constant wet. Maybe with a few tips you can try again, they are really not so hard to grow!

Whereas, I like the stinky ones. I really need to find a list of these, because the idea of having foul smelling flowers in my house is really attractive to me and I have no idea why. As long as the odor doesn't stink up the entire house, I think my husband will be ok with it though, so I'm gonna go with it. He might even think that it's "cool." LOL!

Good growing! Thanks for sharing the pics!
