Phalaenopsis kuntrarti rarashati 'Bunker Hill'

The first time blooming. It has 2 more buds. I'm so excited!

The photo doesn't do the colors justice. They are much more intense in real life.

I grow it S/H and it seems happy.

Sorry, I should clarify....

First time blooming for me!

I'm still tickled.

Hi,

Congrats on the first bloom! A first bloom is always awesome. I love the colours of this one and it is on my wishlist. Is this phal easy to bloom & how big does the plant get?

Thanks,
Paula

Nice. I find the same thing with colors with my cheap camera. The colors don't come out as strong.

Thanks Paula, Based on my limited experience with this one (I got it in September) it appears to be an easy bloomer. It spent the winter on a Southfacing windowsil (lots of light), temps in the mid to upper 60's.
It's small, leaves about 3" long.

I agree Bill, this one is my first digital camera and I've learned alot about features and limitations. Fortunately it didn't cost a lot.
