Do these have a sweet fragrance? Some bulbs smell wonderful and others dreadful!

That is a very healthy and happy looking plant!

I can't tell you, it hangs from the roof, out of sent range, but there was a strange smekk for a while, but I thought it could be the Miltonia Clowesii, when it stopped flowering the smell was gone. So it could still be the Bulbo.

I am waiting for a yellow form of the biflorum, only seen pics of it. can wait.

That is a very healthy and happy looking plant!


It is a very forgiving plant, it hangs out of reach, and gets the occasional feed and plenty of water...seems to like it.

I think this one is known for a rather poor smell.

If its from the old genus of Mastigion (has very similar flowers to fascinator, and putidum) it could be pretty rank.

My fascinator has a mixed smell. Kind of putrid but also kind of sweet. Then again I like the smell of gasoline and bleach :)

nice one. I need to get some of this to add to my collection.. :D

I really like the unusual looking flowers of a lot of bulbos

all the bulbos i see make me want to get one :clap:

Excellent pictures. The plant is extremely healthy and the flower is extremely interesting!
