bulbophyllum inunctum

[paphjoint]

A neat little species -- flowers closes during night and only last for 3 or 4 days

very nice Uri! How much light do you give yours...I have not had mine bloom and cultural help would be appreciated!

 

[paphjoint]

It seems to appreciate Paphiopedilum to Phalenopsis light somewhere in between these two genera.
Warm to intermediate - watch out for leaf tip dieback on this one - its a late summer to autumn bloomer so there's still hope I guess

 

[Ron-NY]

thanks Uri! Maybe I do have a chance yet. I have one in bright shade and the other is getting brighter light due to the late afternoon sun reaching it.

Beautiful colours!!!! Well done Uri...

Neato, and as always, awesome shot!

Very cool. Is there fragrance? I wonder, with the patterns it has, what it attracts for pollination.

I never knew inunctum came in this colour.. The ones I have seen on the web are usually striped with pink/purple and the base is white.. Nice one...

Wow nice Uri, is it stinky? It looks a little stinky and 4 day flowers, it's got to bee.....

 

[paphjoint]

HI Tadd How are you? Have not seen you around for a while right ?

no not stinky at least during daytimes - but perhaps at night gotta check

 

[paphjoint]

Hmm well it has now been almost a week so - Mistakenly I thought the flowers would only last 4 days (which I mistakenly recalled last year) - but they are even better now.

This is a nicer colored one then what I usually see too. How big are the flowers Uri?

Nice two-toned orange. Appropriate for the coming season.
