ReplyDeleteWhere did you get this from?
ReplyDeleteNice. this guy is going back to Bulbophyllum.... :)
ReplyDeletePlease can you check this with Bulbophyllum frostii from Vietnam!
ReplyDeleteI've seen pictures of frostii and I thought they looked strikingly similar. However, this one is much smaller.
ReplyDeleteGiby, this is from Wynad.
Hi Pre Sam,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Jay Pfahl and I write www.orchidspecies.com, I hope that you are aware of it. It is an international effort to have photos of all the world's orchid species in one easy reference spot. The site is non commercial ,and no plants are bought or sold. To date there are 18370 species represented and with your fabulous photos there will be one more. Full credit to you and a link to your blog, what say you.
By the way it is definitely not frostii, check the lip and the much more papilose adaxial surface of the sepals
