Bulbophyllum lepidum
An intermediate-growing epiphyte from the montane forests of Southeast Asia, producing compact umbellate inflorescences with numerous narrow, lanceolate sepals radiating outward in a clean star formation. The sharply pointed sepals with distinct longitudinal veining, small lateral petals, and diminutive dark labelos at the center create an elegant and refined floral display on a compact, small-leaved plant.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun to protect the foliage.
- Temperature: 58–78°F (14–26°C); an intermediate grower with a minimum tolerance around 55°F (13°C).
- Humidity: 70–85%; maintain consistent humidity with good air circulation 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 small basket with a coarse bark mix for excellent drainage and airflow. Ships bare root, well established.
