Hey Everyone

I've got two spikes on this one. However, they're leaning in opposite directions so I couldn't get a good picture of both sets of flowers in the same shot. That said, I hope you like the ones I could get and you can see how the splodges differ from flower to flower.

One of my favourites... but then, I am a bit dotty

I love it! I have a NoID that looks just like it. I had to cut off its spike while still in bloom as the plant wasn't as healthy when I got it. I put that spike in water and it made a new bloom. It lasted 3 months in a vase - I was amazed. I have that spike still in a vase hoping it may make a keiki.

Thanks guys
Yes, it's amazing how long the blooms last in a vase. Once, when a phal spike broke in shipping, I found it in the box, put it in some water and it lasted for ages!

Thanks Kelo, Sonya and Rosie.
Yes, there's something about spotty splodge flowers I love!

Rosie, is your Sogo Lovely more spotty then rather than having a big central-type splodge? I do I have to wait to find out?
