Bulbophyllum lobbii

[musa]

Another bulbo is in bloom, I nearly missed it, as it is growing under a bunch of other plants.
The flower closes at night, see last pic.

Lovely. Reminds me of klaptoense.

I did not know the flowers close at night. They reopen next day?

Lobbii is such a lovely Bulbo... have you noticed its scent (yes, scent!)?

 

[musa]

Thank you all!
It was a great surprise finding it in bloom, as it doesen't have the best spot in my growing area.
Leslie, yes, they reopen again in the morning, bulbos often do that.
Guldal, yes noticed the scent, smells like fresh cut flowers at a florists!
