Phalaenopsis Yaphon Oh Mygod
I ordered this from Louisiana Orchid Connection (LOC) and shortly after it grew a spike a bloomed. All the orchids I buy from LOC are of such good quality and usually very vigorous growers.
I have looked up this orchid and have come across such a variety of flowers...they all look so different and some plants create different flowers
  This is such an interesting cross (speciosa 'C1' x KS Happy Eagle). |

That's a nice bloom, is it scented?

Yes it smells like fruit loops, however, it's not a strong fragrance. You really have to get next to the flower to smell it.

I like that. Cute flower, wish I could smell it. I've heard lots of good things about Louisiana Orchid Connection.

Here's hoping the one I got from Ray blooms in the near future. And that it's the alba form......

That's a lovely flower, and it seems to have an interesting fragrance. And I'll gladly second your praise for Louisiana Orchid Connection. Every plant from them is vigorous and well-established.

Really beautiful. I wish I could find one.
Can you post a photo of the whole plant?

 I accidentally sunburned the lowest leaf but it doesn't seem affected by it at all.

You must buy from them one day, not only do they seek quality plants, they have amazing prices.

I don't know if it'll help you on your side of the Atlantic, but John (Louisiana Orchid) has it on eBay right now. |
