Help me identifying this Phal - Orchid Board

I bought this one at a local grocery store. It did not have any tags on it. I know its a Phal but I don't know the exact name of it. Can anyone help?

It has weird flowers for a Phal, don't you think!

It will be pretty hard to come up with the name as there are many hybrids which look similar to each other. But yours is a very nice peloric!!

Wow! I love it. I like pelorics anyway (see my avatar) and the pale green with spots with red spotted lips are icing on the cake.

Sorry but the only thing else I can say about your lovely Phal is its a NOID.

No Idea on the ID, but you've got a very health plant, and a super peloric. Great find!

That's a lovely plant! Healthy as can be, and a peloric flower to boot (a peloric flower has petals which take on the appearance of the lip). Pelorics are amazing.

Identifying a hybrid that's not tagged is all but impossible. Maybe completely impossible. There are thousands upon thousands of Phal. hybrids and many of them are virtually identical. Basically, you'll have to settle for calling it Phal. NoID. But that's not a bad thing - it's a real beauty!
