Phalaenopsis cornu-cervi Red

Another nice one among the many reds.  This one has got a thick color which is even and unbroken.

Phalaenopsis violacea var.sumatra

This is a nice violacea var. sumatra from Song Orchids. The color is deep but too bad it is not evenly distributed.

Coelogyne rochussenii One Week Later

The flowers are still around one week after they first flowered.

Two Bulbophyllums

These two Bulbophyllums are very similar in appearance.  One is Bulb. fascinator while the other is Bulb. putidum.  Both orchids can be found in Thailand and are easy to flower in Singapore.  They like to be mounted on a piece of tree bark or fern bark which gives the plant good ventilation around the roots.

The flower above is Bulbophyllum fascinator while the one below is Bulbophyllum putidum.

Paphiopedilum bellatulum

This is one my favourite Paphs.  It s easy to grow in our climate and flowers easily as soon as the plant reaches flowering size.  Woon Leng and Song Orchids frequency import them from either Thailand or Taiwan.  This one has decided to hide inside the pot.

Coelogyne rochussenii

Some buds of Coelogyne rochussenii finally opened this morning.  The mass flowering of this orchid is always a magnificent sight. 

Bulbophyllum vinaceum

The gift from the sky turn out to be Bulbophyllum vinaceum.  The flower opened on 1/3/2011. 
It has a deep purple color and a pleasant fragrance.

When i saw this orchid lying on the forest floor, i first thought it must be B.lobii because it is one of the most widespread orchids in Borneo.  But when it produced a flower bud i knew it was something else because the bud showed some purplish coloration.  What a surprise!!
