I'm sure I've seen this type of phal at Costco recently.

Every other week they have phals on sale for about $15. Wish they'd sell oncidiums.

I have a doritinopsis that I bought a a show that has wonderful spotting, and it bloomed for more than 5 months on one spike. It isn't quite the same though, It has many small spots and is called Fusheng Sweet Paridise. It seems to be a very hardy plant. I would recomend it to anyone.

Sii, you should try Safeway. Safeway here seems to always have oncidiums. They're nice but they grow like dandelions.

These are all from there.

On topic. Rona sells phals too. Maybe check some there They have 2 - 3 plants in a pot so in one pot there are like 3-5 spikes.

I never saw those kind of Phals at our Rona. Or many oncids at Safeway. Geeeeezzz!! Oh well, less temptation I guess.

We don't have anything like that in our Safeway! Bummer!

Eggshells,
Aww! My Rona doesn't have anything nice. Last time I was there I saw some sad looking pahls (dry and toasty or soggy)

As for Safeway, hmmmm I haven't seen any around here. But I guess with the temptations away, can't spend any money.

Although now I'm REALLY going to keep my eye out if I see a Safeway during my travels.

BTW would you believe my nelly isler has a little bloom that's I saw opening this morning? Aww, she's so sweet. Maybe trying to cheer me up as I have a 'hospital shelf'. I hope the KLN helps me out.

Walmart is where we see the best variety in phals. Of coarse, they are generaly no id
