It's just lost the flowers, but I have had no time to post the pics... It looks more like the Cirrhopetalum gamosepalum in IOSPE...
Do Bulbos flowers always last for such a short period? only 1,5 weeks!!!
And before Sue and Dorothy ask , it smelled like fresh champignons
Ramon, I am no expert but in all the Bulbophyllum lepidums that I have seen the conjoint ventral sepals are "horizontal'. It is difficult to tell but looking at your photo of the flowers the conjoint ventral sepals seem to bend downwards. See if you can find a picture of Bulbophyllum auratum (I think that that is the one I mean ) and you will see what I mean about the ventral sepals curving down. Could your plant perhaps be Cirrhopetalum Daisy Chain ( a hybrid beteen Cirrhopetalum makoyanum and curtisii)? I have never seen a Cirrhopetalum/Bulbophyllum curtisii and do not know what a "true" Cirrhopetalum Daisy Chain looks like as here in South Africa a lot of the plants labelled as that hybrid are in fact Bulbophyllum leoidum and vice versa i.e. lepidums are labelled as Daisy Chain.
Mike, thanks for all this info! I will do my research regarding Daisy Chain (just found a couple of pics in google but they all look different to eachother) and curtisii.
as per my plant, it is an effect of the picture. Actually, the sepals are very horizontal only the one (in pic, second from left to right) decided on the second day to change position and go upwards...
