Surprise birthday phal
Hi there OB,
It's my 35th birthday today and had a really nice surprise phal come from my friend who is living in Oz. She got me into orchids when she sent me my first phal in easter 09, i sent her a dendrobium for her birthday in febuary.
I was really chuffed with my new phal :-)

Agreed Happy Birthday! Any chance that Phal is a double? The way the leaves are folded makes me think there may be two hiding. Would that be a bonus!? Have a great B-Day!

Really tough to say without knowing what the roots look like, and if it's a basal keiki. They seem happy like they are, so I wouldn't worry about repotting until those awesome blooms go about their merry way. Enjoy!
