Unknown Phalaenopsis - Orchid Board

wtamuboi · #1 (**permalink**) 10-08-2009, 09:29 PM

So I bought this at the grocery store... it called out to me, I promise. It's a fairly modest phalaenopsis, but I'd still like to know what it is. I'm working on a list of orchids I currently have. Now, I have a large number of plants that will just be surprises when they finally bloom (Small Cattleyas purchased for $1 each, no indication what they are... seemed like a bargain

). I know I'm going to have a headache when the time comes around and that I'm going to have to be patient... but I can at least start somewhere.

Thanks!

If it came without a tag, it's a NOID ... No Id ..
but it's a beauty!

I like to give my NoID's names. I make something up for each one.

But Dorothy is right, if it came without a tag then a Phal is pretty impossible to identify because there are sooo many hybrids out there, many of them not registered.

Id or noid, its not going to grow any differently from any other phal. Just enjoy what it has to offer.
I like the colors, its very pretty - I have soft spot for yellows

Happy Growing!

I have heard and read that yellow flowered plants be them orchids or even roses, are very hardy plants ... This one will be a sure bloomer for years to come!
