Bulbophyllum Koolau Starburst

17 years ago

( lobbii x levanae ) 2003

I'm pretty sure that I've narrowed down the ID, although I might have to later change it.

I could've sworn that this was labled as a B. Kalimpong, but it looks nothin' like one.

I do have one of these, but can't find a bloom reference.

So I assuming that this is likely it.;~)



That spider started waiting for lunch about time the flower opened.

Considering the various scent changes that the flower has went through, it must be waitin' for fruit flies!

1st day-no scent that I could tell.

2nd day-Honey suckle or lily-like?

3rd day-Melon! It started out smelling of watermelon, but now it's like a mild cantaloupe.

    Thanks!
    I really like everything about this one.
    It look gorgous and smells, even, better!:~)
    I think that you can really see the levanae in it.
    (I'm no expert, but I do play one online!) ;~)
    About the only hybrids that I actively seek out are the Bulbos and Stans.
    Although I have species snob tendencies, these two are just too cool to avoid! ;~)
    These and some of the old heritage Catts.
    Here and there, anyway.

    Gorgeous little one ! About 2 - 2.5 inches ?? I'm patiently waiting for my lasiochilum species and fascinator hybrid to bloom ! My burfordiense is going crazy right now ! Been blooming steadily for almost two months !! Cirr. Daisy Chain just spiking again. That's my 4 Bulb. collection. What others do you have ??
