Default mall temptation
The garden corner at the mall always tempt me Most of the time plants are in bad conditions so it's just about to wait for the right stock of plants to arrive
Today was the day and look what I've got Picasa Web Albums - LouderTH - Phalaenopsis ...

I love the flower shape, the color is so intense and it has some slight darker stripes all over and dots in the center as well. The back of flowers is golden and it's loaded of buds. If this wasn't enough Big flashy rounded leafs and tons of roots definitively convinced me

Last pic is for size comparison, the phal with the tillandsia uppon is an adult mini mark.

Anything about the ID?

PS: i snapped a spike with some buds on it now i'm keeping it on place hoping it's gonna keep going

I have one that looks very similar (purchased it in january). Flowers and leaves look a lot like yours. It keeps flowering, making new buds and is to happy!

I never had a Phal that kept flowering for that long and building buds in the same time. I hope your's will be as showy as mine!

Great plant and great color!! The pot looks absolutely stuffed with roots.

As for ID, have you checked the tag on it for a website? Sometimes growers will have photos of their products on their website, and with luck you may be able to get an ID. I managed to ID four orchids that way.

Beautiful healthy plant and positively gorgeous color. Looks like a sheen on the petals, too.

Orchidwiz doesn't have any information on ibrido. Sorry.
