    Nicely done Chris...I love it

    I asked this once before somewhere else but I do not think I got a response (or I just plan forgot:confused:)....

    Does anyone know what the difference is between Bulbophyllum moniliforme and Bulbophyllum minutissimum?

    Are they separate species Tom?

    I like the look of the moss on your mount.

    Thanks everyone. Candace, moss does really well in my orchidarium. I even have lots of live sphagnum growing.

    Have you posted any current full shots of that orchidarium anywhere? Forgive me if you have, too lazy to look. :p

    Tracey, I'm out of town for a few days. I'll try to remember to take a pic when I get back :)

    Neyra and Karen: this one grows at a glacial pace for me. You might have better luck mooching off someone who knows how to grow it well. ;)

    Oh boy this is old but anyway for current readers this is moniliforme, they're commonly called the same name (one or the other) but they're actually very different. Bulbophyllum minutissimum has more reddish purple patterned flowers instead of orange/yellow and the flowers don't open as much.
