First time bloom
Default First time bloom

Bought this orchid earlier in the summer with no idea of what the blooms looked like. It has two basal keikis (one of them also has a spike). It was a lovely surprise. Bonus: it's fragrant! Anyone seen this one before and know what's the name?

It's a Phalaenopsis hybrid. Without a name tag people could only guess as to the identity.

Yeah, Phal.
Really nice bloom color! You had some real luck when you picked that one up.

Don't cut the flower stalk(s) when it's done blooming, unless it turns brown (dies back).
I have stalks bloom again, two of them in 3rd year now.

It has a scent that is awesome. I had one that looked kind of like that but no smell.

Could be related to this or have one of these as a parent. Who knows for sure.
