    Default Bulbophyllum woelfliae (was mislabelled wolfei)

    This is an interesting Australian (Queensland) native: the flowers open in the morning and close after noon for a few days

    Lars, I believe this is Bulbo. woelfliae from Philippines, a fantastic species. Nicely done! Great photos too.

    Tom, you are right. Another mislabelled plant, but it is quite spectacular and is quite a prolific flowerer too. Seems a relative to B pardulatum & B. quadrangulare

    Lars, it is a great buy. Over here, it still is a rare plant, never sold at a commercial nursery.

    Beautiful flower! Such a pity it doesn't remain open and bloom longer.
