Bulbophyllum beccarii
Dist: Borneo, lowland forest, warm climbing and creeping epiphyte with large leaves up to 15" long by 10" at the widest point; somewhat inrolled at the base. A hanging raceme up to 10" long with up to 70 quite attractive 3/4" flowers.
As with all these fly pollinated flowers the smell is somewhat offensive to the
senses. Shall attach a closer view of the flowers.
