Bulbophyllum blumei

This species is usually not found in orchid nurseries as it is quite difficult to grow. Hobbyists who are fond of rare species takes great pride as flowering them is tedious. But once established in the garden, it would be a pleasant sight to witness the beauty of its unique flowers. It blooms once a year around November.

Passing of a Dear Friend.

Another Loss

Mr Lim Mok Hai

We wish to note with regret, the passing of a fellow orchidist of many years. He was the Founder of the Malaysian Orchid Society and have been its President from 1987 to 2003.
He was also leading the Orchid Society of Selangor and Federal Territory.

His passion for Malaysian Orchids from the early years even till yesterday was never ending and was also passionate in placing Malaysia in the World's Orchid Map. He was also extremely active when Malaysia (Shah Alam) hosted the 17th. WOC (World Orchid Conference) in April, 2002.
