Here is one of my absolute favorite orchids: Bulbophyllum clipeibulbum. This creature is native to Vietnam and has a long, multi-flowered inflorescence with hinged, hairy lips that moves in the wind!

    Oh boy, reminds me of all the mosquito larvae in my greenhouse during summer…

    Bulbos surely are unique!

    Thanks, I hate it!

    It’s really cool but I can’t shake the creepy crawly feeling.
