Den. Haleahi Blush 'Lake View'
I received this orchid in April and since it grew a big plump new cane that thrilled me by putting out 2 flower spikes! The spikes grew much longer than I expected and had many more buds than I expected so I ended up not shaping it for the best presentation, but now I know what to expect next time. I had an issue at first with every other bud starting to open prematurely then blasting, but luckily that stopped after a couple. I wanted to wait until they all opened to post a pic, but the older the bloom gets the more the color lightens so I thought I would go ahead now. I love these blooms, I wish I was a better photographer, but I'm barely adequate lol.

So pretty! The coloring reminds me of a carnation almost.

Thank you, as the blooms age the pink has faded more into the white with pink edges that it is supposed to be I think.
