Bulbophyllum lobbii 'Black form'
Found in Borneo, Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines at altitudes of 200 to 2000 meters in lowland and montane forests on trunks and main branches of trees as an unifoliate, small to medium sized, hot to cool growing epiphytic species is from and has well spaced pseudobulbs with a persistent sheath that split into yellow fibers and carries a single, apical, leathery leaf that blooms in the summer on an erect, to 6" [15 cm] long, single flowered inflorescence that arises from a node on the rhizome. The large, fragrant, single flower arising on each new pseudobulb is held at mid leaf.
This species is a hot to cool growing orchid and will do best mounted or in a pot with a well draining medium and regular water and fertilizer but have caution. As the new pseudobulbs develop, fungus can easily occur from overwatering.
