Please help identify my new NOID

[Helen]

Hi all,
I purchased 2 new no name phals Apr 17th with a couple buds each. Now I know the colour of them.

Can someone help identify the type of Phal please? Any help would be appreciated. It's light green with red veining.

I'm not sure of which cross it is.
Phals are extremely difficult to ID because of the extensive hybridizing. Several different crosses can yield similar results

Okay Fren, I thought I'd give it a shot. The tag just says "Phalaenopsis". I thought maybe someone could even help with the name of the pattern? is it a candy strip? It is like looking a actual veins.

By the way, repotting both of these phals didn't hurt them, obviously! Hopefully I can get them to bloom again next year! That's the hard part! By looking at the colour of the other plant's bud, it'll probably be the same colour..

I believe that it is a candystripe.

I'm not a phal expert at the moment (because I don't collect them as much as slippers)...I just need to read a bit more on phal breeding and I'll know better

Here's my what I think is called a candystipe. It's an old picture and we had this Noid for ages. I like this picture (sorry not to take over your ID thread)

Yours has the much newer colours, while mine is old and more traditional

Oh Fren, wow! That is the ultimate in colouring....I love it!!! I was searching the internet and look what I found. I can't believe it...check out my picture, the first and then the one I found online, the second one.
Look very close indeed.

I agree that it is very difficult to ID the phal bought in the shop. Many crosses look similar to each other and there are hundreds of thousands crosses out there. No one knows all of them. Moreover, it can be non registered.
