This is a beautiful phalaenopsis with unusual flaring around the edges of the flowers. This is the first bloom for the infant plant.

Absoutely wonderful. I believe the white picotee is very difficult to breed into a phal.
Thanks for posting, it's an amazing plant.

Plants in 4-inch pots are available at Orchid Center (808) 696-2974) in Hawaii. Orchid Center is certified to ship. However, I recommend you check with nurseries in your area to save on shipping. These plants are not the easiest to grow. I lost two of four plants that I obtained last year. I hope the remaining two will grow into full adult plants with long cascading sprays of flowers.

That's stunning! Very Very nice!! It might be one of those plants that has a hard time as a seedling but once it reaches a certain size does fine. I think Phal. Hilo Lip is like that.
