Bulbo. masendevallieanum

[LouisW]

I recently purchased this little bulbophyllum over the internet. It came in a 2 inch pot and is a beautiful little plant. If anyone has any care advice or secrets I would appreciate the help. Ill try to post pics soon. Sorry misspelled masdevallieanum. is that right?

I cant help except to say that if you google the name you can probably find the information you are looking for, I didnt want you to think no one saw your post.

I'm pretty new to orchids, myself- but, the advice about google-search is a good idea. Good luck- and let us know how you're doing with it!

Hi Louis,
I believe the Bulbophyllum you have might be a blumei (syn. masdevalliacium).
Apparently this has been renamed Bulbo. maxillare by taxonomist Paul Ormerod.
You can get a culture sheet on Bulbophyllum for its care. Possibly one of the
long time growers here can elaborate on this particular guys culture.
