Favorite orchid
Sheesh!!! Why don't you start with a hard question???
This is ONE of our favorites. This is our Dtps. Lih Jiang Beauty "B#1" x Phal Lucia Lip "B#1". We had it shipped back from Akatsuka Orchids on Hawaii's big island when we were there in October 2004. It stopped blooming today and it had bloomed for exactly 3 months. The flowers were 5 inches wide.

I've been calling this an unknown phal (my first orchid) but doesn't it look an awful lot like yours, Sandra? I love it, just gorgeous! I think the lighting in the photo makes the pink in mine look a little lighter but it is as dark as yours (?)...could I have just discovered this baby's name?

Those white phals with red lips are really stunning - I think. Saw some yellow ones with red lips last week while my daughter and I were at Holes Grnhs. Very eye catching, unfortunately not great flower shape and they were $$$$.
