Hairy orchid


Furry bloom of Bulbophyllum lindleyanum - a smallish orchid found from India all the way to Indochina. I do not grow this as I believe its one of those plants best suited to a cooler climate although I was told with tender loving care, some specimens many still flower in the sweltering lowland.

Yeah...today the weather is merciless, and I was soaked with sweat just walking round my plot not doing much.
