I have read that light can make a difference to how much red you get, but it's pretty random. I read higher light gives more red but until I can get mine to bloom I can't confirm that. |
Thanks Rosie for your response.
I did nothing special for my Phal. tetraspis. She is in my orchid house with other phals. under 50% shade net. I put her in the east side of the house. My orchid house is east open so she got plenty of light at least half day time. Water her regularly. Used NPK 30:10:10(March to June) once weekly, then NPK 13:27:27 (August to October) once weekly.
I have no idea about the effect of light that really can change or not this phals petal or sepals colour. But now I transfer the plant in the north- west corner which is the much shaded aria to see what will happens with the next flower.
