Bulbophyllum sanguineopunctatum

A fragrant intermediate to warm-growing epiphyte from the forests of Southeast Asia, bearing umbellate inflorescences with several simultaneously opening flowers. Each bloom features dramatically elongated, tail-like lateral sepals, a small dorsal sepal with densely fringed margins, and prominently veined petals with conspicuous cilia.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun to protect the foliage.
• Temperature: 60–82°F (15–28°C); an intermediate to warm grower with a minimum tolerance around 55°F (13°C).
• Humidity: 70–85%; maintain high humidity with strong air movement to keep roots healthy.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; avoid prolonged saturation at the roots.

Additional Notes

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