Default New phals from Kingfisher Orchids

My order arrived and I was surprised to find instead of six orchids I ordered -seven. And the bonus plant has flower!
Here is the picture of my new phals:

One at the front is Phal fasciata 'Shaffers' with 4 spikes.
Four smaller ones are:
Phal. Kuntrarti Rarashati ‘Copperstate’
Phal. bellina (‘Ingrid Ohh’ X ‘Joy’)
Phal. equestris ‘Blue’ BM/TOGA X self with basal keiki
and Phal. amboinensis
At the back are Phal. equestris var. alba and bonus plant - Dtps. Freed's Beautiful Girl 'Blue' X Phal Equestris 'Alba' (I copied the label) with flowers.
I am very happy with my purchase.
Thank you for looking.
Here is the closer picture of blooming phal:

They all sure look healthy and happy. I couldn't see the flower picture. It's there now! It is lovely.

Thank you Joann and Cody. I started to expand from vandas towards phals and really like them. Blooms are very lovely and they take so little space.

You must be just thrilled! They look wonderful - great choices too, we have some of the same

I also recieved my orchids, althought we had some travel problems due to the 39+ heat 4 longs days. Poor things too hot and no air circulation, so some are a loss

Good news he said he would replace them - they are due on thurday

You're orchids look just beautiful - enjoy them!

Thank you Lagoon. Sorry to hear about your loss. I had some orchids from ebay shipped in July right when we had the postal strike - it was disaster. Both plants - vanda and phal have unsightly yellow patches all over them. They still hanging around but not fun to look at. From now on I decided to skip the hottest months with ordering too.
It is great that he will replace yours - that's the service!

Wooooo!! Great haul! That equestris var alba is HUGE!!! I have an order on the way and cant wait for them to get here. And a bonus plant always sweetens the deal!! I bought his equestris var. aurea off him, and I have been searching for one for YEARS, so I am beyond thrilled!!! Cant wait to see blooming pics of the equestris 'blue'!! Good Growing!!

What?!! How come I missed that one, it wasn't in the catalogue?
Orange and aurea are on my wish list too.

It wasnt on his list, but I happened to ask if he has ever seen them available in Canada, and he said he had one for sale. He also said he might have more seedlings in the spring, he just has to wait to see what color they flower. If you are still looking for an 'orange', Tropical Gardens Orchids has them for sale on their website! I just got one last week!!

Thank you for the info! I am pre-ordering 10 more plants from Ten Shin Gardens to pick up at the show. Maybe TG will be there too, so I will get them all at once.
