Default Phal. Baldan's Kaleidoscope 'Golden Treasure' AM/AOS

I had one of these several years ago but in my inexperience (as though I'm a guru now... ) I killed it.

I always wanted a replacement but never found one that looked really healthy...I stumbled upon this one and fell in love! I know that alot of folks say that this plant has been cloned to death but I really enjoy the detail in these flowers...they just seem happy to me

What a beauty! I can't imagine anyone not loving that flower! I have 2 noids that are similar but not nearly as vibrant as yours. Thanks for sharing.

I have one thats just a bit paler. It just keeps blooming a blooming and blooming. Has the healthiest looking leaves out of all of my Phals.

Beautiful!

I have that same plant and it has been in bloom since last October. It just sent out another spike and two more branched spikes from the main flower spike!

My friend has this one as well with the same story--it justs never stops blooming.

I have two that I rescued from work. They stayed in bloom for ages and rebloomed with minimal fuss. I love the pattern in the flowers.

Really beautiful! I also can't imagine anyone not liking this flower - they are wonderful, and yes, they are such cheerful, happy things!
