Phalaenopsis schilleriana

[peterlin]

This is one of my favorite Phalaenopsis schilleriana origianted from Taiwan. I called it 'round leaves' because its leaves are nice and round. They could be rounder but I have trouble keeping the humidity high here in North Texas. I have this plant since 2008 - and it has grew very well on this tree fern. Flower size is 8 cm. Alas, there is no fragrance.







This picture is comparing to Phalaenopsis schilleriana 'Pink Butterfly' AM/AOS. This is a clone that I grew in a 4 inch basket. Its roots are everywhere. Flower has excellent form, overlapping. About 6 cm NS. Again, no fragrance on this one.



And this picture is comparing to a wild open-form Phal schilleriana which has nice fragrance..smell like rose, very fragrant in the morning.
