Many hybrids! Female
Default Many hybrids!

This is a favorite of mine these days. It grows steadily but slowly and the flower shape is just, to me, amazing. Little phal. Yaphon Lobspis!

An old favorite of mine: phal. Purple Martin. She has never let me down and always puts on quite a good show! Of the last four years she's been in my care she must have bloom a solid three of those years.

Flowering and blooming doesn't seem a problem for that one: phal. Taisuco Mickey.

It took me a while to get the care of that one right and as a consequence she is getting low on leaves... phal. Meidarland Annaberry

Another lovely little blue/purple phal that doesn't mind a change in habitat is phal. Tying Shin Blue Jay. Not a surprise here as she is half phal. Purple Martin!

Phal. Sogo Chabstick was lovelier when I got her, the dark purple center was a bit bigger. But temperature tends to do that s I am not worried.

The spike on this one went over three feet last week. It cannot hold upright and hasn't been able to for quite a while. It is my biggest phal and the silliest: Phal. Fire Cracker!

And last but not least, another new acquisition of earlier this summer: phal. Hiroshima Tetratris! The only orchid that I over potted as soon as it got home that didn't sulk me for it! I love her! Usually she has WAY more flowers than that but I got lazy and took too long to take a picture. She had only one flower left on her three spikes. But she is sequential so she'll perk up!

They're all beautiful! The only one of those I have is Purple Martin and it's been a reliable bloomer for me although the flowers are very small. I'm not surprised that it's being used in other crosses. You have a wonderful selection there. Good growing.
