    I was given a small seedling of this hybrid 4 or 5 years ago and it has now flowered for me. I am very pleased with it . A fairly large flower. This hybrid was done by Bil Thoms and registered in 2011. Parents are Bulb. phalaenopsis and echinolabium. Bulb. Karen Lewis 1.JPG Bulb. Karen Lewis 2.JPG Bulb. Karen Lewis 3.JPG

    Very nice color and looks really large relative to plant size. I bet it's a stinker given the parents. But shouldn't this be in the Orchid Hybrids forum?

    Very nice. It's interesting that very large grower + large grower = compact blooming plant. o_O

    Yes you are correct, it should be in the Hybrid section.
    I just checked and I posted 6 Bulbos all hybrids in the species section,sorry about that. I will have to blame it on to much Xmas cheer.
    Can anyone transfer all 6 to the Hybrid section.
