    I actually bought this a while back, and it was labeled as Bulbophyllum comosum. When it flowered for the first time, it turned out to be Bulbophyllum lilacinum.

    There is a extremely light scent... almost insignificant

    Nothing against Bulbo lilacina, but I would have been pretty disappointed.

    Yeah, definitely still looking to obtain one, too! :( When it was listed, they were sold out extremely fast at the time. I bet all the other buyers realize by now!

    If you going to POE in San Francisco in a few weeks, you could probably find it there. Tropical Exotique usually has them.
