Phal lobbii...from OB Project 1

[cb977]

Well...Jessica decided to make her arrival!

Wrote in the project chat thread...you have done very well...late but well worth the wait. You win in the number of blooms

I love them they are so cute Can I ask how you grow yours?

[cb977]

I am the last in the group to get this baby to bloom! I'll tell you but the others in Project 1 might want to chime in on their conditions too

It took a number of moves before Jessica found her happy place. Turns out she likes to be in the shade about 3 inches outside the bright sun area! She also enjoys a misting twice a day

Thanks Susanne, so it's not in an orchidarium or anything?

Definitely worth the wait, look at all those buds! Please post a picture when they all open

Wow, that is just gorgeous !!! I would love to see a larger picture though.

Beautiful! Would love to hear where you kept it... is this one of those phals that loses its leaves in the winter? I have one coming from Oak Hill next week... Thanks! Barbara

"is this one of those phals that loses its leaves in the winter? "

It does in the wild, but in cultivation they don't - I think it is because they aren't subjected to an extended drying season.

It loves to be misted!!!
