Orchid not in bloom.
Pot 2.5"
The Bulbophyllum vaginatum × sib is a fascinating Southeast Asian species prized by collectors for its creeping growth habit and intricate cream flowers with purple striping. Thriving in stable 22-28°C temperatures with high humidity (75-85%), this intermediate-advanced orchid performs best when mounted horizontally to accommodate its spreading rhizomes. The spring blooms emerge from the base, producing multiple 2-3cm flowers per spike with a subtle earthy fragrance. While rare in cultivation due to its specific requirements, sibling crosses offer unique variations in flower colour and patterning. Grow in terrariums or orchid cabinets with consistent moisture and excellent air movement to replicate its native cloud forest habitat.
These care guidelines are based on general information and may need adjustments based on your specific growing conditions and the needs of your individual plant.
