Bulbophyllum plumatum
This guy seems so easy to flower, not to mention an easy grower. It must have put out half a dozen new pseudo bulbs over the last 2 to 3 months and now 3 flower spikes. The problem I have is getting good pictures of the flower....

Nice one Doc, I can see how a pic might be a problem.

Awesome! I've got a seedling coming in the mail this week. Hopefully I won't have to wait two years for blooms like that...  |

Beautiful, what type of medium are you using? Do you think they do well mounted? Thanks I'm trying to grow a couple.

The flower is about 6.5" long. I grow my Bulbos probably in more light than many others. As you can see from the pictures, I have gone to hanging most because of lack of space on a bench. Most are in bark/CHC while some were purchased mounted in sphag, so I just hang them out. Others are very small so they are in trays to keep them from falling over or getting knocked over because I'm more like an elephant in a china shop(the ones between the thermometer and succulents).
