Habitat and Ecology:

Bulbophyllum maxillare is widespread species from across Southeast Asia. This species is an epiphyte inhabiting a variety of lowland forest types from sea level to 600 metres elevation.

 

Description

Inflorescences measure 15 cm and produce solitary flowers that each measure 4 cm. This species blooms at any time of the year and flowers are unscented. This is the elusive yellow flower clone, ex Popow.

 

Cultivation:

Grow Bulbophyllum maxillare on a mount, or in a pot with a medium/fine bark mix and layer of moss on top. Grow plants in moderate light, never in direct or bright sunlight and keep them well watered all year. Grow this species in an intermediate to warm greenhouse and give it night-time temperatures of 17 - 24 degrees and daytime temperatures of 26 to 33 degrees. Plants are better suited for a greenhouse but will grow and potentially flower indoors in suitable conditions.
