I can see why you couldn't pass this one up. Very striking.

This is actually called Phal Troy 'Joy.'
You can see one Big Leaf has for sale HERE.
I've never been interested in one much until I saw your picture. As you can see, the ones on Big Leaf aren't as colorful. I think he got those pictures from Joseph Wu,

Ben, I checked out the site. I wouldn't pay that price for this orchid. It's a cute flower but not worth that kind of money. I paid less than half that amount when I bought it directly from Wu at the Redlands show. He had some much nicer crosses at the show also but they were more money than I was willing to pay.
My favorite phal purchase at Redlands was Phal. Orchid World 'Bonnie Vazquez'. It was only $35 from another vendor and it's a stunning phal.

My point was that its the same flower. At Redlands the Wu's sometimes charge less for smaller plants or they might give you a deal if you get a couple things or whatever for various reasons. Doesn't always happen.
