Bulbophyllum Manchind

[JDT]

First time bloom, there are 3 more spikes growing, just today 1 bud opened 2 more spikes to go. These are subsequential spikes with blooms waiting to bloom this could go on for several months.

I thinkI can guess the parents, have them well in mind, but can’t remember the name of one of them. Will look it up the next time I turn on Orchidwiz.

Thanks Geoff! B. mandibulare X B. echinolabium

Echinolabium was the one I could visualise but not recall: is mandibulare in the same section as Siamesnse ?

Hey Jack! This is beautiful!

B. Siamense is in the Sestochilus section and B. mandibulare is in the Lepidorhiza section

I believe the smell is bad and the lip is great, the overall presentation even better than mandibulare.

Stunning! I love the intense center of the blooms.

Good thing I have sinus problems and can't smell any of my bulbos! I would agree on the presentation but I do like both.

It certainly has a lot of the intense color from the mandibulare, thanks Bruce
