I'm in LOVE!!

Does it have a name or is it a NOID? It would surely have followed me home as well.

Thanks, Sue! From having no Phals at all, I've somehow ended up with 6 now.

Terri.... NOID - as many of these are. Of the ones sold at supermarkets, I've yet to see one with a name.... many times, they're not even labelled as Phalaenopsis.

Wow!!!!

That's a nice one, but you are soooo right! It wouldn't have lasted too much longer lookin at those roots! Its a great thing you came by and scooped it up! Great

!!!!!!

Thanks, Candice! It's just so beautiful, I feel lucky to have it - so its good karma all around.

Wow,That is very intense. What is the name? Of course--no tag right ? Thanks for saving it's life.

Shakkai, you are gonna laugh your bootsie off when I tell you this. . .I bought one today! See, what a bad influence you are? It's not as pretty as yours. . .but it is similar. It's more purple where yours is red.

I'll post a picture shortly. . .mine had a tag. . .so maybe, that will help us figure out what you bought.

Dtps. Taida Pearl - NOT a mini

It looks a bit like my Sky Island Orchids Night Leopard. I think many of these harlequins have Golden Peoker in their lineage somewhere. Mines cross is Golden Peoker x Night Leopard.
