Ana Fischer asked: "Can somebody help me to find a photo and the
culture for Bulbophyllum vittatum".
Peter O'Byrne said: "Ana, that name has been used for two different species.
You've
probably got the American species, Bulbophyllum vittatum Rchb.f. &
Warm, which was first collected in Minas Gerais in Brasil. This
species is currently called Bulbophyllum warmingianum Cogn."
As Ana has not clearified which is the one she has, I advice to take a Look
on Jay Pfahl's Website where you will find a photo of B. warmingianum
habitat. This may help to identify the species.

Several Brazilian Bulbophyllum have aproximately the same vegetative looking
of B. warmingianum, others are B. wedellii, B ipanemense, B. roraimense, B.
tripetalum, B. sanderianum, etc. Most of them are litophytic and will take a
lot of light. Need to know exactly what is the one you need info about.
