    Default Bulbophyllum Louis Sander

    This is a division from a friend and the 1st flower for me. As it ages, there should be multiple cluster flowers much like Cirr Elizabeth Ann. The lip is hinged and rocks back and forth... kinda neat!

    WOW, incredible sepals. Great bloom Howard, and on a 3 bulb division. Unfortunately the Bulbo. family has something against me.
