Bulbophyllum (annandalei x frostii)

This orchid is growing will in the very heart of the metropolitan area of the capital of Puerto Rico.  It is a hot and humid place and it seems to suit this hybrid well.  The flowers form is intermediate between that of the parents.

Bulbophyllum frostii Summerh.1928

This orchid is by no means common in orchid collections in Puerto Rico.  On the other hand it has a dedicated following among those relatively few growers that keep Bulbophyllums.    This plant appears not to be hard to grow and bloom in Puerto Rico coastal lowlands.
