Thank you for the compliment! It's kind of funny because when I originally purchased this particular phal, I wasn't really all that crazy about the color of the blooms. They are pristine White with a maroon Center and lip. But I've grown to hugely respected because of its tenacity..

Sometimes it's the plainest/boring plants that end up growing on us and becoming loved because they are amazing in a different way.

Reminds me of a post I saw today in the Dutch Orchid Association FB page, someone posted a photo of a similar Phal (white with pink lip) which is 25 years old and litterally dripping with blooms. I normally wouldn't but one like that, but such a well grown plant is just wow! Maybe yours will look like that if it keeps spiking so well!
