Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Likes high humidity and good airflow, and fairly bright light (as suitable for cattleyas). Grows well on mounts.
Comments: Parent plant: Medium-sized plant. Not the fastest growing Bulbophyllum in the greenhouse, but large flowers. The flower diagnostics conform to O'Byrne's description for B. fritillariiflorum and not B. arfakianum. The flower smells like vomit on warm sunny mornings!

The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Irian Jaya (formerly Dutch or Western New Guinea). This
orchid was discovered in the hills on the southern slopes of the central
mountain range somewhat west of the border with Papua New Guinea. It was
found along the Noord River near the village of Alkmaar, but additional
details were not reported. Siegerist (1988), however, stated that plants
in the Hyalosema Section are found at approximately 1650 ft. (500 m)The
following climate table and cultural suggestions are therefore based on an
estimated habitat elevation and should be used somewhat cautiously.
