Do you think this is Bulbophyllum longiflorum?

My son fell in love with this one at an orchid show and of course I failed to take a picture of the tag!

Your son has good taste, that's a beauty! Looks to me like eberhardtii, which is lumped into the currently-huge concept of longiflorum. I have a piece of eberhardtii I'll share if you have someone I can mail it to this side of the border. Canadian vendors might sell it, too, I originally got mine from Glen Decker (maybe as Cirrho. picturatum?).

Oh, you're so sweet! Thank you for your generous offer but I don't have anyone that you could mail it to over there. I really appreciate the thought though. At least I have a name now...that's a great start! There were so many gorgeous orchids at the show but this was the one he just adored, he's only 8 but I think he's got great taste too!

Yes it does look like eberhardtii to me.

Bulbophyllum corolliferum (curtisii)

Bulbophyllum corolliferum (curtisii)

Hmmm...I will have to look this up!

It was close but it looks like blooms on corolliferum are much smaller than what I saw at the orchid show.
