phal violacea malaysian blue x blue norton
 

one of the nice things about growing under lights and having a warm house is getting some blooms during the winter :)

this is the first time ive seen the flower its nice but I do like the scent more :)

looks a bit more lighter in the photo than it actually is.

It's a cutie!

Very nice flower! I wish you could share that scent. Must be really nice if you like it better than the appearance. :)

I like the dark lip on it, I should get a 'blue' sometime in the spring. Do you get yours from the German nurseries?

Congrats on bloom. What lights do you use? And at what distance?

on that shelf there's 3 x 18w t5 under counter link lights I think they're about 2 foot long, made reflectors for them out of round white plastic guttering.

they're about 6 inches maybe a bit more from the lights, the tubes are 6400k if I remember correctly.


there's white plastic grow sheeting or whatever its called behind them :)

theyre on 12 hours atm, might move some out to the greenhouse when its done and it wont cost an arm and a leg to heat.

Beautiful, what a lovely flower. I love the fragrance of the violacea.

Ooo! Lovely!

I really like that color, it's very pretty.

Lovely!
