Phalaenopsis Stuartiana species? - Orchid Board

It looks a lot like Phal Stuartiana species but I have some doubts.

The flowers are little and the plant blooms every year.

In the second photo a different pattern on one flower (or more, I can't remember).
I am in the identification fever

Thanks in advance!

does it have spotted leafs? Phalaenopsis Stuartiana have spotted leafs

No spotted leaves...

Maybe a primary hybrid?... Any chance?

Stuartiana can be variable, but the lip makes me think its a primary hybrid...possibly with schilleriana.

It's not a cross with schilleriana, because Nico has one, and so do I, and it looks completely different. And has mottled leaves.

I agree. If it was a cross with these two species, it would have mottled leaves. Also, the lip isn't quite right for stuartiana.

Definitely looks like it has stuartiana in it. It may be crossed with something like amabilis. It will likely be hard to know for sure.

Thank you all. It is ok with me to know that is has something from stuartiana in it. Anyway, it doesn't looks like standard phals and it makes me think that somewhere in this world it grows naturally. Of, course, I am subjective.
