Default Phals Enjoying the Day

Another round opening up on this beautiful day.


Check out the petel base... don't know if these secondary buds will open.....







I got this last year and the petals were just as you see them....while it appears healthy, you have to ask, "Virus?"

Great colours. The crinkled pettles on the purple one are quite pretty, whatever has caused them.

Wild extra buds! I've never seen anything like it. Let us know if they open. It seems like the other blooms would be pretty crowded if they did.

Nice growing. Looks like your 'chid are very happy.

Nice flowers!!
But that one does scream virus. I would be leary of having it around your others plants.
Oh and those secondary buds usually blast, but not always.

I love the first one! Does it have a name? It was be so amazing if the second set of buds actually bloomed.

I love the purple one, I've yet to come across anything like it up here.

The secondary buds issue is new to me too. It does seems like they may blast though.

Are you trying to collect Brother plants? Seems like you have quite a few of them.

In fact I don't... I have maybe 2 others that probably have some of the same cross in them but not the same and they aren't blooming just yet
