FWIW - these bloom several times a year in the hot south (summers around 90) though in 'Brachy shade' (~850fc) - might be interesting to see what they do in brighter light!
Why surprised, that it grows warm? I supposed you yourself put it in the warm tank?
Impertinent flippancy aside, I think, we can conclude, that it's either a very adaptable species or that it can grow within a wide temperature range!
It somehows reminds me of the pendant of either this chinese paper dragon:

Or of this Red Light Lantern:

In both cases we are in the realm of merry festivity!
Yes I think I wanted to experiment if it would grow, let alone bloom lol.
Another two are in the lower part of the same tank not doing quite as well. Light is half amount, making it look like they need high light, more than what we think for the 'low light' bulbo myth.
Thanks for links, but the color of this bloom is not Chinese red. More blood red than anything.

Hmmm interesting fukinagashi, a streamer symbolize weaving of a princess Orihime for the Japanese star festival.

A satisfactory conclusion! Somebody in North Queensland (not me hehehe) says it grows well in North Queensland. Tropical conditions here.
link 1 reference
link 2 reference
DLE's photos 'baited' me into ordering a treschii. I will see if it really does grow well in North Queensland. It will be very far from flowering size - but looking forward to growing a Bulbo. Adding that it will be my first ever Bulbophyllum. Will watch it like a hawk hehe

Now, who enabling 'WHO' lol.
I supposed if you combined the two it would make Squiggy lol.The "somehow" stood for "not in colour", but in shape"!
Another inflorescence developed on Squiggy soon after the last one finished 2 months ago. Seems to be able to bloom multiple times from the same bulb.
Flower not as vertically long but seemingly more voluptuous.

You gotta cross it with Bulb. rothschildianum.
Haha I don’t have that one. Plus I kinda like it the way it is, so long and menacing lol.
In bloom again in cool tank...
Another play with my picture editing 
:
The last pic is what would a night view up close would look like?
