    Default Bulbo Orchid Shopping Spree in Johor

    Malaysia Boleh. I just came back from Johor Bahru and I hauled 15 bulbos and 3 phalaenopsis (all wild species) from a shop for an estimate of USD4 each. There's no ID to it but I can recognise some like Bulbophyllum innuctum, Bulbophyllum fabello-veneris, Bulbophyllum macranthumand Phalaenopsis amboninensis....

    Thriled!!

    Pictures will follow. Hopefully someone can recognise the bulbs and leaves to give me something to work on if not I will have to wait for them to flower...

    Cheers
