Scored this little guy at my local Lowe's. They just recently started getting in phal types that are registered so I stopped in today.
Saw this beauty there. Its in a glass container so its getting repot ASAP.
It has 1 spike, 3 branches, 20 buds, 6 flowers and a basal keiki. It seems like a happy plant. All in all not a bad buy for $5.

Lovely bloom, Josh. Good pick! You're lucky you can find registered plants in Lowes. Nothing like that here.

My old boss said that they just started getting the named ones two weeks ago so I'm lucky for sure.

Very nice! I'm pretty sure I have this one but it is a NOID from Safeway. Identical look and a basal keiki as well. It has been in bloom since mid Oct. But it only gets a few blooms at a time then gets more buds. Maybe because it badly needs re-potting.
No deals like that here either. Home Depot has had NOID Phals in large square ceramic pots for $51.00 for weeks now. Now that they are either all done blooming or looking poor, they are half price for $24.99. Some deal.
Enjoy your great new bargain Josh!

Just ask them! You'd be surprised at how desperate that they are to move product.
Good news about the blooms for sure.

How gorgeous!!! And $5 is a steal!!! I often see a similar one here, but sold as a tiny mini Phal.
