Two different Flowers
Hi all, I bought this Phal at home depot for 10.00. When I first saw it it had two spikes and one open yellow flower, after about a week the other spikes flower open and it was white. Are there two different plant in the same pot or do hybrids to this on there own? How ever I think its cool.

Zooming in on the  it appears that you have 2 different phals in one pot. The depot has multiple phals in one pot, you got lucky to have 2 different color phals to your collection.
Let me also add that it looks like the yellow guy is a mini (compact) phal possibly a Phal. Sogo Pride (not sure) and the white one is possibly a phal. amabilis hybrid which is very common for the box stores.

At Lowes they did that too. I was repotting one, and I didn't realize there were two in there. I was so SHOCKED when one of them fell, and I was holding the other. I was thinking the plant had rotted or something. I was relieved and amazed that there was two plants. I killed both of them later.
