Bulbophyllum umbellatum
This Bulbophyllum grows rapidly and displays a lot of flowers when in bloom. Unfortunately that flowers are very short lived. They'll last two days, sometimes three days. I find this to be a very easy grower. They're kept in a shady area and wartered daily.

Very nice! Agree the bulbo flowers in general don't last very long.

They're very showy. Blooms 2-3 times per year but the flowers are not long lasting--3 days at the most. |

Beautiful Bulbo with stunning pictures. However I have a question for anyone who could help, I am looking for the BULBOPHYLLUM UMBELLATUM that pops up under this name in Google search, it is completely different plant and I love it. The thing is, every time I do see one for sale and ask if it looks like the one from Google they say no it looks like this one in the post. IS the name wrong or is there 2 different species under the same name? Many thanks anyone

Look up guttulatum...and see if that is similar to what you're looking for....you're right...2 totally different looking plants/flowers.
