Bulbophyllum grandiflorum v. aureum ‘Shining Fuji’
I'm a returning member who was out of touch for years (as in about 13). Over the past couple of years, I've been getting back into orchids.
Recently, I ordered several orchids, including two Bulbophyllums. One is Bulbophyllum grandiflorum v. aureum ‘Shining Fuji’. I've been looking for more detailed care information without a lot of luck. I know that this one likes it warm (although the parent [I]Bulb. aureum[I] does not like it as warm, apparently); I know that the Bulbophyllums like a lot of moisture. Does anyone have any additional information about care?
Also, I've read that [I]Bulb. grandiflorum[I] smells foul. I'm wondering whether this hybrid will as well. I'm also wondering what size blooms to expect, as [I]Bulb. aureum[I] is described as a "mini".
I'll post about the second one in a separate thread.
