Paph primulinum purpurascens

I got this species fr recent trip to Taipei..what struck me abt this sp is the very small but colourful flower..plus u can get 2 or more flowers on 1 spike..and when one flower withers, another will appear. Lets hope this can do well in Singapore climate

The more greenish dorsal

The other with more brownish dorsal

Apparently the original is fr paph primulinum, found only in certain part of Sumatra, Indonesia and currently under critically endangered list

I remembered i bought a similar variety fr this species in 2014.

Zygopetallum sp......

Interesting fragrance..faint, light but refreshing, esp in daytime under influence of sun.

Big succulent pseudobulb. Hope will not shrink

Lady of the night- brassovola Nodosa

This species fr central america n mexico area..somehow also can be easily grown here.If adequate sunlight, will flower often. Nice citrus smell at night...hence nickname " Lady of the night"

Dendrobium senile

Nickname "white-hair" or " oldman" denbribium..I call it " hairy" denbrobium. It is semi deciduoud, flower last abt 2-4 wks, with a faint lemon smell

Cleisostoma arietinum

Small flowers, unique leaves.
Last time had this, but leaves gradually dropped.
Lets hope this time this one will survive.

Bulbophyllum lasiochilum

Nickname " shaggy lipped bulbo". Looking at the lips of this sp, not hard to imagine why such a cute name

More interesting is despite being small size ( 1-2cm), it gived a light fragrance, some describe as strawberry smell. Flowered in end Jan- feb

Interesting now mid march, another flower appears.

Tainia species

This looks like Tainia viridifusca. Very intetesting growth..flower shoot just appears fr bulb, grows taller and taller and small flowers appear at the very tip.
