Bulbo careyanum

[Ron-NY]

Purchased as cupreum but turned out to be careyanum

a warm growing species from from Nepal to Indo-China

I think this type is called "bottlebrush" -- one can see why!

Ron, Very nice -- but its not a careyanum its a Bulbophyllum saurocephalum

Uri, the spacing of the flowers on the rachis is wrong for saurocephalum although the coloration is correct. The rachis is also considerably shorter as well

It's too bad these all have bulbs or else I'd try them.

Dot thanks for the links... I hate buying mislabeled plants I also think I traded a few of these before blooming them.

Guess it is saurocephalum but the rachis is so different between this one and my other.
