Known as the 'long-petaled Bulbophyllum', the flower petals of this orchid can reach lengths of 30 cm long! Native to Thailand, Myanmar, Borneo and Malaysia, where it grows in lowland tropical forests. Like most Bulbophyllum, the flowers produce a decaying scent to attract pollinator flies. Each flower spike produces an umbel consisting of 5 to 10 flowers.

Thank you to this photographer for making the flower photos available for public use.
