Phal 'Silver Ghost'
Default Phal 'Silver Ghost'

So, I won this in a Raffle at a local orchid show. I've been searching here and the web for information but there isn't very much. The plant has a flower spike but I think it will be a number of weeks before anything opens.

Does anyone have any information or flower pictures on this variety?

There's one on Ebay for sale. Description on their plant is: "white w/yellow or some purple/red labellum; relatively short, dark-green foliage. Intermediate grower. bright indirect light"

Thanks I saw this one but given that my orchid has a leaf span of 14 inches and a flower spike 22 inches high, I'm not sure "short" works.

there is a phal Silver Ghost that was registered in 1978. I find it next to impossible to find photos or descriptions of most older phals. If only someone kept a photo database.

Interestingly there is another that is/was being patented - see details
Phalaenopsis orchid plant named '154934' - Patent application
unfortunately I can't see the photographs mentioned in the application.
