LOL. No, they get Japanese music more than anything.

Interesting that it has become more peloric in a later flowering. I have heard they can change and sometimes go back to normal.

I'm just wondering what will happen when it flowers next, wheter it gets more severe or not.
@Kim. Nice orchid, wonderful colours.
@Marion. In the case of peloric phals, the flower petals mutate at a genetic level to mimic the lip of the flower. A peloric phal is where the mutation is a complete imitation of the lip (see the 1st photo in the 1st post). The picture Kim posted is a semi peloric phal, where the mutation is only a partial imitation of the lip.
