My biggest phalaenopsis flower
The colour is usual but the size is impressive. This is my first attempt to post a photo. I hope it will work...

And the whole stalk. That stick was not wanted here but I needed something to prevent the stalk from breaking. The stalk was approaching 1 meter in length.

WOW!!!
Is there a name on that baby?
It looks like a Dtps Join Grace that I recently bought, although mine are nowhere near that size, probably about 4 inches across.
Yours is a stunner!!!

It doesn't have a name. I bought it in a local flower shop without flowers and roots, so after one year it surprised me too.
That is a sewing metric, I couldn't find the proper ruler. And it is 12 cm accross, not inches. So it is about the same size as yours.  |

A few pics...
the one with the measuring tape is a bad shot but it shows the size to be approximately 4 inches.

You were right, mine is bigger. It is not the same phalaenopsis. The colour is the same, but the shape of petals is different. Yours come very close to each other at the top and mine are rounded and have space at the top between them. I like the shape of your flowers.

Lovely flowers. White Phals are so elegant. Congratulations for bringing it back from the dead as well. I really enjoy those save stories. Well done!
