Does that Phal have a name? Love the super saturated red. Always love L. tenebrosa.

The phal is a noid. The tenebrosa is 7 inches across. The phal is one I've had for quite awhile and it is sloooooooow!!! But other than a bad black spot infection which I cut out and dabbed with cinnamon, it is reliable. The red is even more red and sparkly than the pic shows. Too much blue from the blue sky through the roof. It should last two months if like the last time it bloomed. I have a pic somewhere in this black hole. The tenebrosa is huge. 24 inch pbulb/leaves. It resides up in the tallest, warmest, brightest part of the GH. Here is the phal last year, or maybe the year before. I don't date any of these pics (I don't know how to do that on my digi cam).

What a pretty sight. Must be such fun to walk into the GH and find a bunch of bloomers. They are all lovely. That red phalie and the tenebrosa are especially nice.
