BulboPhyllum Macranthum
 
What are the requirements for this orchid?
I really hope this is not one of the ones with an "odor":rofl:, as I have heard some or most bulbo's do.....It is supposed to have a nice fragrance.

This is my last order that I am making of orchids. I SWEAR!:rofl: well this and the two that I am bidding on currently.....:rofl:

Kindrag:-) Last one, for sure? :rofl::rofl::rofl:
Anyway, I love bulbo's ad I have them outside the whole year around, so pretty much do not care if any smell bad or not:-) I keep all bulbos moist at all time, decent but not direct light, and fertilizing often, and they seem to thrive like crazy at my balcony:-) TRY BULBO'S, they are fun and pretty easy if you can keep them moist, pretty muhc impossible to over water, which is the fact I love the most :evil:

ABSOLUTELY the last one my budget is now officially shot!!

Annnnnddddd @TOMMYMIAMI I live in the Texas back country anything smelling like decay or death brings in bobcats, coyotes, and other not so friendly beings. NO stinky flowers allowed!!!

TOMMYMIAMI 09-04-2013 02:38 PM

:-) I can not give intel on the smell, I bough this bulbo this year, I have other bulbo's that do not smell anything bad, but this one no clue:-)

And trust once you hear a bob cat scream (woman screeching for help) once you hear that outside your bedroom window you wont want them back ever again. ugh...I still have nightmares!!

You will love your Bulb. macranthum. It blooms mid-summer for me, gets Catt light until about 3 and then goes into deep shade. I grow it in a net basket sitting in a tray of water. And it isn't a stinker.

When mine blooms this is what it should look like.

Good luck with getting it into bloom. It looks pretty. I have one Bulbo - a grandiflorum and it has blasted on me three times before but after moving it nearer the light it is now thriving I tell you! I have three buds on the go - sorry four buds on the go and three new growths. Fingers crossed that this time it makes it to bud and then bloom, I'll sulk otherwise.

@susie 11 heres hoping. I have gotten my gardenia to bloom many times. And that stupid plant is super picky
