    The pseudobulbs on the bulbophyllum look neat!

    This can be difficult to bloom, but the pseudobulbs are always interesting.

    I've had the Dendrobium since April and the Bulbophyllum is a recent acquisition (from Saturday 30th). I grow most of my plants in containers and these are no exception, they're in the same container with some holes for aeration. I just keep it a bit more dry than the Lepanthes and I use distilled water, sometimes with a two part fertiliser. These are closer to the lights so they get bright light.
    I am still experimenting though!
