The citrus-scented Bulbophyllum! One of the few that smells not terrible. Produces round clusters of delicate white flowers that remind us of dandelion blooms. Native to Southeast Asia in the wet tropical biome. Enjoys intermediate-warm temps and even moisture. Doesn't need a ton of light. Like a gentle winter rest and a slight temperature difference to spike in the Winter. 

Unless otherwise stated, it will not arrive in bloom or spike. Flower pictured is not of the plant you will receive. Expect some differences in shape and color. 

 

BULBOPHYLLUM CARE INFO:

Potting mix: Mounted with moss. Potted in fine bark or moss. 

Light: Shaded medium. Must be given ample water and humidity for brighter locations. 

Water: Water frequently in hot months as the media reaches dry. These prefer moist conditions, do not allow them to fully dry out or stay dry for long. Enjoys a mild rest period of decreased watering and fertilizing in winter.

Temp: Intermediate-warm (55F min, 95F max). 

Humidity: 60-80%, prefers medium-high humidity. Ensure good air circulation for terrarium or greenhouse growing.

Fertilizing: 1/4-1/2 strength urea-free fertilizer, every month as new roots and leaves emerge. Run clean tap water through the growing media once monthly to prevent salt buildup. Light feeders - less is more
