howdy!
well, if you are interested in phals (especially hybrids) there are sooooo many to choose from you almost can't go wrong. i agree with roberta to go slow in the beginning, cause like many folks, you get bit by the bug and start ordering stuff you have no business growing in your conditions and you find out you actually don't like it. not just cause of the flowers, but all the other factors like size, growth habits, rate of growth, finickiness, etc.
also, try different vendors. it IS daunting in the beginning but you can get a feel for good ones and bad ones by comparing the shipments and plants. soon you will see the ones you like and trust and the ones you only pop on something super rare or desirable. after you see the flowers and grow different plants (even within just the phals) you see which areas you gravitate towards.
my advice is to draw a distinction between species and hybrids, cause while the crazy hybrids are alluring, we have found some greater satisfaction in species. they really push your growing abilities and have the most rewarding habits. our
