Purple Phal NOID - Orchid Board

OdessaOrchid · #1 05-20-2009, 11:08 PM

Hi Everyone, I thought I would share a pic of the first phal I was able to get to rebloom. I didn't realize that you have to stake the spike as it grows so I just let it grow and this is how it turned out. It works well for the coffee table so my husband doesn't get upset about it blocking the TV

Nice! Looks familiar....

There's no way to tell for sure if yours is the same hybrid. I have seen different hybrids that look exactly the same.

Thanks! I will have to update my list and put it as a NOID maybe Dtps. Malibu Merlot. Your plant looks great. I'm hoping mine will get some nice healthy leaves back. This was one of two that I was learning with so it lost a few more leaves than I would have liked

It looks great. I like the trailing look

Nice color and I think the spike looks very nice growing that way! Good job getting it to rebloom!!

Hi quiltergal-

Thank you for showing me your flowers. Today I was watering the plant and realized that the name was printed on the side of the pot! It is Malibu Merlot!!! Thank you so much!!
