A warm- to hot-growing Bulbophyllum native to Sulawesi and Borneo. The flowers of this species are large and striking, but be warned: the fragrance is among the most pungent in the entire genus. We would argue this may be the worst-smelling Bulbophyllum species in existence… even more intense than B. beccarii!

This species is a successive bloomer, and large, mature plants have been known to flower from the same stem for over a year. In addition, established plants can produce impressive flowers with a vertical spread of 12 inches or more. Growing this species on the warm to hot side will help speed up maturity. An excellent choice for growers in the southern U.S.
