This phal has flowers 41/2 inches across, the spike is 4 ft long and has 7 blooms also, spiking off of the blooming spike and another 2 1/2 spike, with 5 buds. It is soooo large. Leaves are 10" by 4" and waxy deep green. Only color beside pure white is a little yellow and a touch of red just in the center. Mr. No Name needs a name., got one for him? ThanksI.D.

It's a beautiful white Noid phal. That's probably the best you're going to get.
Identifying the hybrid name of an untagged phal is like asking what breed your stray cat is. It's a lovely "100% purebred cutie-patootie".

it's probably 100% Phal amabilis, but there's no way to tell for sure.

i dont think yours looks like amabilis, it looks more yellow on the lip than amabilis. its a hybrid without a tag, so you will probably never be able to tell

the color is within the normal range for amabilis. this species has been line-bred since the 1830s to produce plants with less color, but there are still some around that have a more natural color.

this one is not line bred, which is why it looks different from the ones you're used to seeing. as I said, the line bred ones generally have less yellow color than this. some of them also have a little bit of purple color in them.
