    What a beautiful, almost "sculptural" looking bloom.

    So cool! It looks like it is reaching up and out from the plant to show-off its bloom. So pretty!

    Cheers,

    Sorry Nelson but your identification is wrong.

    The illustrated plant is Bulbophyllum ecornutoides, which was described by Wally Suarez and myself a couple of years back in the Australian Orchid Review.

    This another Philippines endemic.

    Bulbophyllum apertum has recently been found in the Philippines in Cotabato province in Mindanao.

    Yes, very sculptural indeed. Reminds me of some of Richard Hunt's sculptures.Richard Hunt
