Bulbophyllum taiwanense

A floriferous epiphyte from the montane forests of East Asia, bearing racemose inflorescences with multiple flowers arranged along the rachis on individual pedicels. Each bloom features narrow, tapering lateral sepals, a small dorsal sepal with ciliate margins, and short fringed petals — creating an elegant, airy floral display.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–50% shade cloth; avoid direct midday sun to protect the foliage.
• Temperature: 55–75°F (13–24°C); an intermediate grower that appreciates a distinct cool season to initiate flowering. Minimum tolerance around 50°F (10°C).
• Humidity: 70–85%; maintain consistent humidity with good air circulation.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; reduce slightly during cooler months.

Additional Notes

Best grown mounted on cork or in a small basket with a coarse bark mix for excellent drainage. Ships bare root, well established.
