Bulbophyllum lobbii is an epiphytic orchid native to Southeast Asia, present in countries including India, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia among others. The large (for a Bulbophyllum) pseudobulbs produce a single leaf and potentially one large flower. Though many Bulbophyllum are fragrant (usually stinky to attract pollinating flies) this species is considered by most to be pleasing. This Bulbo is pollinated by blowflies/bottleflies and he large central lip is hinged and wobbles with the slightest vibration, used in pollination to shove the unsuspecting bug against the column where it can receive or release pollen to the flower.
