    Flower shape strongly resembles the shape of echinolabium. This orchid arrived last year from The Dungeon.

    How big is it, Clark? Do you suppose it will get huge like its phal parent? I dig it!

    The longest leaf on the plant is a little over 12 inches long. I don't think it will get as big as the phal parent.

    I have another interesting Bulb hybrid that should open next week. Bulb (sulawesii X nympholitanum) X echinolabium. Came as a free plant from C&H.

    That's pretty nice, Clark. Not at all what I expected.
    Too bad it doesn't stink.

    Very neat, Clark.

    I think I've got a seedling of that hybrid around here somewhere, and its nice to know what to expect.

    very nice,

    Wish to see more like phalaenopsis - a lots of flowers on shorts steams but larger after echinolabium, maybe when the pollen would be from the other parent it would works?

    but any way I like very much the colour and shape of this one as well!

    Bulbophyllum nympholitanum

    I'm searching for pictures of Bulbophyllum nympholitanum. I have one that hasn't yet started blooming. Does anyone have a picture you could post here perhaps?
