Default Surprise!

i just wanted to share a pic of 1 of my phals. Lately i've been buying phals that have lost all their flowers...it's a really good way of getting a surprise i have 5 of them right now and they are dirt cheap too lol. Anyway all of the ones that i picked had some buds developing and/or a spike, this particular one has 2 spikes and is growing a 3rd. Finally after all the waiting and watching and guessing what it's blooms would be she finally popped 1 open for me yesterday i think she's a keeper for sure hope you all like!

New purchases that go into bloom for you are definitely a treat. Sounds like you have some happy phals. Happy Holidays! AL

Very pretty! She's definitely a keeper.

Neat idea, too. I may have to try that. I posted earlier today that growing orchids has granted me with more patience (not a lot, but more than I had!). The waiting game with an unknown NOID phal might help even more!
