Thanks for the show Jim, all beautiful and obviously good growing. I've got to stop putting it off and get P. Minho Princess soon.

I love that Minho Princess!!!! They are all beautiful, but that one is a step above the rest. The last one is a Balysa???? I have one just like that with no tag, and was wondering why it doesn't open all the way. Is this the normal look to it then? I think that's what I have, then.
Mine was open when I got it, but not this time. Thanks for sharing!!!

Love them all. . .I've actually got quite a few of those too:

Love the Phal. Schilleriana. I've got a pretty little seedling. . .incredible foliage. Super nice to see yours in bloom.

Phal. Minho Princess is one of my TOP faves. . .mine is currently NOT in bloom and has somehow split a big leaf-not pretty. The leaves are very stiff and leathery.

And I've got that peloric one. . .looks exactly like yours, except my was labeled Phal. Baldan's Kaleidoscope. I am assuming that label is correct and that it is just a mutant clonal variation but it's interesting that yours is labeled Phal. Balysa. Gonna go Google to see what's what, if possible but I'll probably have to go crawling to Dorthy for help. LOLOL

I do not have, and really admire, your Phal. Hausermann's Gold Cup X Sideline. . .lovely colors!

Yep, these orchids do make Monday tolerable. . .that's why I have so many at work.
