I think this is some good news of God's creation in the Agriculture section, and hope u can appreciate my sharing another newer article with pics.
A day in the forests of Central Luzon, Philippines
... It is quite common to find more than one Bulbophyllum species growing on a single tree. One time on the east coast of Luzon a large, fallen tree bore no less than nine different Bulbophyllum species on its trunk and branches (a number of other orchid genera were also present).
Another genus that is very common here are the miniature-flowered dendrochilums. They seem to take advantage of all the parts of the trunk and branches. Dendrochilum parvulum is one of the smallest of all the species with the plant being about 4 centimeters tall. These plants are normally found growing towards the ends of the branches and normally are about a dozen pseudobulbs in size. Occasionally one will find a very old plant, usually growing on the trunk that is about a foot in length and consists of several hundred pseudobulbs.
Quite a number of new Dendrochilum species have been named from this area in the last few years – Dchlm. cootesii and Dchlm. cordatum are two that have been formally described and published. Without a doubt, many more undescribed species, in many different genera, await description from this area...
