Title: Brachygostilis helferii - Anyone ever heard of this orchid?
Post by: ThomasB on March 02, 2011, 02:27:32 PM

Some of these orchids (as bulbs) are currently offered at ebay and I wonder what the plant does look like.
There is neither a picture of plant nor flower and I can't find any information online.


Regards
Thomas

Thank you.  :D

I didn't think about searching for orchids beginning with "Brachy...". This one looks interesting and I wonder whether I should risk to buy one of the bulbs.  ;D
