That would definitely cheer me up! They are beautiful. I have a Miltoniopsis that looks very much like yours.

You knoooowww...If you ever decide that that Phal just isn't doing it for you I could probably help you out. I mean I may just love it you know.  (I killed my sweet little yellow Phal from too little watering over the course of the last 6 months I'd say, pissed.)
Great plants overall.  |

The blooms are still on and lovely ...
Militonia

The militonia opened more blooms but the color was less intense ... What would cause this to happen. The medium is moist and it has good humidity.

Probably a combination of temperature and light levels. Red pigments, in particular, develop better when cool and bright.
And yes. One should feed a plant that's in bloom. In all cases, feeding should be at fairly low rates.
