Thanks everyone. I have it in a black plastic Vanda basket with sphagnum moss, like most of my Bulbos. Prior to blooming it had six bulb's, and each one has a new one forming. Most of which started In December. It grows faster than most of my other Bulbophyllums. But it's not longer than ten inches out the basket. It also doesn't smell like rotting meat or anything at all.

Very nice. I have one like this and it is listed as semi alba due to the black on the top dorsal. Not sure which is correct but they are really cool when they are in bloom.
