Phal equestris and equestris

[quiltergal]

Very nice Gloria. I love that deeper color!

[isurus79]

Great coloration on these. Is this a Phal species that needs a cold rest to bloom?

[greenbean]

They're both gorgeous! It's great that they are so different. I'm leaning more and more towards getting one (or 6) or these little cuties.

Hmmm, and I do need to fill up my order on that buy 5 get 1 free deal.....

Thanks again folks

I do nothing special to prime these into bloom, or for any other of my phals.
Theres nothing wrong with having a couple of these, its fun to compare. They are wonderful growers.
BTW -- Both are fragrant, but not all spikes will be

Great color, indeed. I would have liked mine to be a bit darker as your is. Great plant though, it's been blooming since January and is still pushing new flowers out. I'm hooked.

That is gorgeous my equestris var alba is putting up a spike so hopefully it will bloom. yours is fantastic and I love them both, maybe I should add a equestris to my collection other than the alba. well done on growing such lovely plants.

Gloria

My favorite equestris so far, and fragrant too.
Can you recall where you got it?

Thanks for sharing, Gloria

Phal equestris is my favorite Phal and yours is super-lovely!

[Oldguypops]

Just beautiful, Gloria. Mine is also in spike, and it will be the first for me.

Its such a thrill to see the first spike eh?! Congrats on you're spikes ya'll!

I got them both from different places in Canada. Clouds orchids et Paramount orchids. The deeper colored one is from clouds.

Thanks for lookin'
