I'm looking for the name & a source for the orchid in this photo. The flowers almost look like little cherry blossom & the stem & leaves are dark green. I had this plant a few years ago, but lost it & I'm anxious to find another one. Thank you!

I hope this works, I'm brand new & this is my first time posting here.

What you have is a multiflora phalaenopsis. I don't know the exact name of the one you have. If you google the name and look at images, you'll see a lot of them that look like yours. They are readily available from most large commercial growers like orchids.com (Normans) or Hausermann Orchids or almost anyplace really.

Hi Tammy. Welcome to Orchid Board. Without a name it's going to be impossible to find an exact replacement. That said, you can probably get pretty close. Normans has the most varied selection of mini Phals I have seen. Hobby Growing

Thanks for the feedback folks. I no longer have this beauty & it makes me so sad that I killed it. I've never seen one w/ so many blooms at once, but I'm not an avid grower like most of you.

Again, thanks for the welcome!

Good luck finding a similar orchid, it really was beautiful!! I don't think I've ever seen a multiflora Phal with so many branches!
