Bulbophyllum frostii
 

This one I just had to buy after seeing one of his plants flowering. The flowers are adorable, like tiny clogs- I've seen pics of it here, but the flowers are even more beautiful when you see them.

This is not blooming now, I really hope I get it to flower next year, cant wait.

Not a very big plant, but its still amazing :)

Lol, everything is amazing- for someone who only have NOID orchids and finally gets something else than IKEA plants :p
Soo, sorry about going all crazy with pics everywhere here ;)

I really like Bulbos. and this is quite different. If you've not seen the blooms,they resemble dutch clogs! Yes,you're in Norway so of course you know that! However,and don't be discouraged by this,I've been growing mine for over 5 yrs and no blooms! I will not give up! I'm sure you'll have success!

I plan to get one of these someday. The flowers are so cool! :)

Lol, well, I've read it can be tricky, and I have no idea what I'm doing- but I'm gonna try and just hope to see the flowers.

He had one that was flowering- that made me buy it, it was darn cute. Even better irl than pictures.

Here is a picture from his web-site for those who havent seen the flower:

Well, finally decided to give some of the new plants a more permanent space than my living room table :p

The guy said to keep the moss growing, its in GreenMix and have lots of oxygen and needs to be pretty moist. (I've read different things, but gonna stick with the GreenMix and try that- first time, but like the idea behind GreenMix). I've also read that it needs a natural drop in temperature at nighttime. And shady, but likes to be in a window- not direct sun, except maybe in the morning when its not that hot. Medium temperature.

My two solutions to that:
First I'm gonna keep it simple- put it in a window with light all day, but not much direct sun. Standing in the window will give it a natural drop in temperature, and this room is kinda perfect for that- the other orchids are happy I moved them. And I put the pot in a bowl with water just to keep humidity up, the plant is not in contact with water (rain, the plant also only gets rainwater) maybe give it a tiny bit of fert. not much, but it does have a new growth that needs to grow and mature a bit, I belive?

So: If it keeps growing, then I assume its happy, and keeps it there.

If not I might try to grow under lights, and keep track of temperature and light- but well, trying the easy way first :p

New home for the Frostii, and two more.

Water to keep humidity high enough

Gonna update when something happens. Lol- not sure how long that takes, but I'm sure its gonna be worth the wait ;) Uhm, atleast I hope so :p

You need some racks so you can fit more plants in. You can even get 5 shelves on rollers. Just trying to help :) (I think I am working on my next shelving unit :) )

Working on it- those in the windows are for candle-lights :p I'm just improvising while I'm thinking of a better and more longterm solution. It takes time. Lol, me thinking about things. I like thinking a lot, and I like to write and talk a lot as well :p

Anyway- I really do appreciate your answers, and I agreee :D I really do need more racks, and more orchids ;)

Edit: lol, posted wrong picture. This is the Hans' Delight enjoying the view. Well, its cute, and they are in the same window. (Didn't find the delete button.)

Ya, you can get shelves. Then for the lower selves that won't get much light add lights just hung under the shelf. :)

Brilliant😎👍 More space, for even more orchids😉 😂
