Bulbo Coroliferum v atropurpureum 'Purple Passion' x Bulbo Daisy Chain
 

After almost 10 years, I have my first spikes! Here's one:

The other bloom spike is behind the leaves.
It seems to like my new conditions. Since last December, it's been on my plant shelf. I am so excited!

My Bulbophyllum putidum did not bloom 8 years. And became bloom after cool autumn. :)

Congratulations on the spike - ten years is a long time to wait - well done.

Here was the flower! This was 1/1/2019 ... pretty cool!

10 years?! I'm getting impatient with my bulbos and I've only had them a year and a half... :(

Very nice plant though, and congrats on the bloom!

Pretty!
So, maybe it just takes another eight years until I see some blooms on my Bulbos? Ugh!

I suspect the 10 years was because it wasn't in the right conditions, particularly not getting enough light. It has received a lot more light in the last year because I got a light shelf in November 2017. It's on the shelf now where mini-catts are blooming.

Congrats. Beautiful flower.

Please, give the link to photo of all your blooming mini cattleyas :)

Beautiful
