    Default Bulbophyllum megalanthum

    Hi folks,

    this species is highly fragrant, first time blooming for me. unfortunately the pollen was dislodged on the first day, no wonder with this perfume!

    Feature similar like Bulb cheiri no wonder highly fragrant, I like it Ron. Usually the fruit flies will come and remove the pollen.

    Yah, it looks so much like B.chieri and B.lyriforme. Very unique species. Seems like you got quite a bit of your Bulbophyllum growing. I should start to plan a trip to Philippines and raid your orchids soon
