World Class 'Big Foot' hybrids
Here are two World Class 'Big Foot' hybrids that are blooming for me right now.
For those that don't know, World Class 'Big Foot' was sold by Carmela's Orchids in the 90's and is where the extra large lip comes from on these.
Yu Pin Easter Island
Phal Yu Pin Dream Girl x World Class 'Big Foot'
Hope you enjoy!

Those are so neat looking! I've never seen such wide lips on phals, they certainly earned the 'big foot'name! The spotting on the second one is very beautiful.

Very nice, Judi, I especially like the first one; did you get these from Carri?

Personally I not a huge fan of Phals, outside of a few species the all look too common to me. However I find these to be much more exotic and I really like the second one. Very cool.
