Bulbophyllum Thouars
Chinese name: Shi duo Lan The generic name "Bulbophyllum" is derived from the Greek words "bulbo" meaning bulb and "phyla" meaning leaf. Bulbophyllum orchids are known for their bulbous pseudobulbs and abundant foliage. They are generally easy to grow and have a tendency to flower readily, often triggered by a drop in temperature caused by a storm or change in environmental conditions. While Bulbophyllum orchids are primarily cultivated for their ornamental value, medicinal usage has been reported for only a limited number of species within the genus. Among the numerous species of Bulbophyllum, medicinal properties have been attributed to approximately 23 species. These species may possess specific therapeutic properties that have been utilized in traditional medicine or folk remedies. |

Vietnamese name: Ban long sam This small terrestrial orchid, known by various names such as Panlongshen in Chinese, Poon lung sum in Hong Kong, Chheng thian liong thiau in Taiwan, and Bamryongsam in Korean, is also called Angkrek hindesan or Djukut hindesan in Indonesian languages. It has a wide distribution and is commonly found in lowland fields, meadows, and forests, thriving even in disturbed areas such as roadside drains in Brisbane. It prefers a moist environment and can grow in both acidic and alkaline soils. After flowering, the plant goes through a growth period of several months before regressing back to the bulb. Individual plants have a lifespan of around 7 to 8 years but produce clusters of smaller bulbs before they die. Phytochemical analysis of this orchid has revealed the presence of various compounds including Spiranthols A and B, spirasineol A, orchinol, p-hydroxybesaldehyde, p-hydroxybenzyl alcohol, hydrocarbons, sterols, and ferulates. Spiranthol A, in particular, has shown cytotoxic activity against HeLa-S3 cells, while the dihydrophenanthrene derivatives exhibited bacteriostatic activity against Gram-positive bacteria. A dihydroflavanoid isolated from this orchid has demonstrated inhibition of cell growth in various human tumor cell lines in vitro. In traditional Chinese medicine (CTM), the whole plant is decocted with pork and used to strengthen the "kidneys" and "cure spitting of blood." Similar preparations are used by the Bai minority in western Yunnan to treat kidney inflammation and strengthen the kidneys. The plant is sun-dried for storage and is considered a nourishing remedy that helps strengthen a weakened body. In Taiwan, it is used as a folk remedy for conditions such as haemoptysis (coughing up blood), epistaxis (nosebleeds), headache, chronic dysentery, and meningitis. It's important to note that traditional medicinal uses and practices can vary, and it's recommended to consult with qualified healthcare professionals or practitioners of traditional medicine for appropriate diagnosis, guidance, and dosage instructions. |
