Bulbophyllum meduse

Another lowland orchids that can be found in Malaysia. Normally found along the riverbanks on tree branches, where more sunlight is available.

Usually flowers several times a year and slightly bigger than bulbophyllum vaginatum.

Physically, the plant is about 20 cm from bulb to leave, where the bulb is slightly brownish in colour and with sharp edges, unlike vaginatum where the bulb edges is more smooth.
