Default Phals in bloom! :)

Hello everyone and Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend, I know I did Here are my phals and I am so happy I really thought it'd be a lot longer before I got the chance to post in this forum, and here's the story....

I bought both of them for 0.50 each at a grocery store, they had just dropped their blooms off and, of course I had no idea what they look like other than white and pink.

They must've really liked the spot I placed them in because within the first week they started to grow a spike from the old one, so long story short, here they are in full re-bloom and I am soooo happy my cheeks hurt , and to top all of that off I just got my Dend Moschatum keikis from Sue , which I plan on mounting on something really cool... 'm thinking a coconut but that goes on a different forum...

Without further a do I present...

1. Phal [(White Moon x Musashino) x Phal Cygnus] x Self
2. (Phal Asians Elegance x Phal Taisuco Bridian) x (Phal Asians Elegance x Phal Taisuco Bridian)

This is how the tags came, please let me know if they're incorrect

Did I mention they exceeded my expectations? I am sooo happy!!!

Your phals are gorgeous! It's especially exciting when you've never seen the blooms before! What a nice surprise.

Those are two of my favorite colors for Phals. Gorgeous! The second picture in on the white one should be submitted to the calendar. It's a really nice shot!
