Bulbophyllum micholitzii var. album x Bulbophyllum arfakianum

(Bloom photo shows a first bloom seedling)

The flowers on both species parents are quite unusual.  Blooms have a sort of 'hooded' shape, where the top dorsal curves over and covers the barely open petals.  We are expecting colors in light green to pale yellow, possibly with overlaid dark-red veining. Little to no scent, unlike many Bulbophyllums.

 

Bulbophyllum micholitzii var. album 'Magnifico' CHM/AOS x self

(Bloom photo shows a first bloom seedling)

Our first seedlings of this rare parent plant.  Wide, lime green foliage will ramble freely across mounts, pots or your benches.  The upright stems each carry a hooded bloom, in shades of chartreuse yellow with some darker tan tessellation. Little to no scent, unlike many Bulbophyllums.

 

Growing Suggestions-  We suggest these seedlings as intermediate to warm growing (68°-85°) with dappled light conditions meaning more shady than not.  We tend to grow our Bulbophyllums on a bench underneath other hanging plants.  Most Bulbophyllums have somewhat fine, and short root systems so overly bright light or dry conditions will desiccate the foliage. Grow in well draining but moisture retentive media.  We have started ours in pots and by the time they outgrow their current containers, they will be ready for shallow baskets or pan pots. 

 

You will receive one each of these Blooming Size plants established in 2.5" pots. Plants are expected to flower within 6-12 months.
