Bulbophyllum triarstella - Lion's Mane Orchid

The mat-forming Bulbophyllum triarsetella is our new favorite miniature! This orchid grows psuedobulbs along a creeping rhizome that blankets the growing surface in miniature leaves. Whatever surface is covered ends up looking like a fuzzy little lion's mane. The flowers on this plant look like red-striped stars that float over the mat of succulent leaves.

PLANT CARE

• Light: Medium to bright, indirect light.
• Water: As a houseplant, prefers frequent waterings (every day is ideal).
• Considerations: Extra humidity encourages blooms and vigorous growth. A great terrarium specimen.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Each mount measures approximately 6" long with a heavy wire hanger. No two pieces are alike, and yours will have its own unique shape, size and personality - expect this natural variation from the photos.
