It Finally bloomed for me.

I had to wait almost 2 years to see this Phal bloom. Due to me not knowing how to repot an orchid. I messed up repotting this orchid it was the first one I ever tried to repot. Well I put it in a clay pot and did not know that it would dry out so fast in it.

So the leaves turned yellow and all but one fell off. I thought it was done but I changed how I water it and I did repot it a second time but this time the right way taking out all old media.

It took almost 2 years to bloom for me. I forgot what it looked like. It's a hardy little orchid.

When I first got it I only had maybe 4 flowers. This time I have 2 spikes and all together 11 blooms.

Pretty!
Is it fragrant?

I used to have something that looked just like that with nice fragrance during the midday.
It was Phal. Sogo Gotris 'Flora Ark'

Thanks guys. I have not had a chance to smell it during the day due to work. In the am and night there is no scent at all

I have another real mystery phal in spike . I bought it as a rescue from petCo for $2 not in bloom. It's so much fun to grow mystery flowers I think.

Aw, I was hoping someone would / could chime in on possible IDs. My neighbor gave me a phal, and the flower looks very similar to yours.

Somewhat reminds me of Phalaenopsis equestris 'Sanguinelli' or Phal. Sogo Gotris.

This one also have skinny leavs not the normal round ones phals have.

Really a pretty one. I know I like not knowing how the bloom will turn out.
