My newest phal Male
Default My newest phal

Hi All--

I recently bought another phal-- I was looking for a more exotic-looking flower and vibrant color and though the seller had an idea of what this plant would look like he couldn't be sure-- so I took the risk and ordered it. It has opened only a few days after bringing it home and I love it!

Here it is--



This is the first flower and it is quite nice, I think. The phal seems to have very good health in general and spends its day under my new grow-lights. It is in a mixture of bark, hydroton, charcoal and perlite-- very airy and light but doesn't soak the roots. It will be replanted after the flowers are done. I risk root rot but really the roots I can see are in excellent condition.

Now for the name... it is...

Phal. Rousserole (Carmela's Wild Thing X Adelaides Delight)

Thanks everyone!!!! The only issue I have is that I want to keep the plant in a stable environment so that it remains healthy and I've done that by putting it under my grow lights with my other phal, which isn't blooming presently. So I have to wonder into my grow room now and then to admire it!
