Default Phal in bloom for the past year, and still going strong!

I don't know the real registered name of this one, but it goes by the very well known trade name of Phal Pink Panther.

I started blooming December 8th 2008, and it's still blooming it's head off! Blooms last 4 months on average, but each spike is continuously growing and producing more buds, usually in groups of 4-5. This current growth spurt gave 5 new buds on each spike, but for some reason 6 blasted.

And if you're wondering if the plant is tired out, it not! It finishing up its second leaf of the season, grew nice roots, and even has a new spike growing!!

Love this Phal!

Hi Camille,
I'm surprised by this plant. It still hasn't lost one flower after you shiped one to me! For the others, when Camille shipped this Phal to me we were surprized by sudden temp drops to about 40 F and it never ever blasted one bud, despite being exposed to these low temps.
Mine is flowering from 2 spikes now with a third on it's way. I love this georgeous bloomer!
Again thanks for getting this one for me and shipping it! It even might be my favorite Phal I have...

Nicole

If it wasn't so cold, I would seriously send one to you, a garden center nearby still has some for sale! Denmark must be very cold!

What an interesting flower! Amazing colors and patterns. It always amazes me how nature can pull off these odd colors and make it look like this incredible work of art. Well done, Camille!
