Phal Minho Princess in bloom
My Phal Minho Princess is in bloom again. The spike is large, branching many times, and arching over the plant/pot almost like a scorpion tail (apart from the branching).
There is only one spike, it just branched close to the plant and sent one part out the other side than the rest.
The first couple of pics were taken a couple of days earlier than the others and the lighting was a bit dark. The second two are more the colour.

Very pretty Rosie
I have yet to find even 1 of these down my way - its such a shame I find these to be the of the prettier phals, lovely colours for sure.
Enjoy those blossoms

I do have to give some credit to my hubby for the pics. We tend to work together on taking pictures of the orchids. Sometimes I leave it to him to do as he's developing a photography hobby which nicely comliments my orchid collecting This latest batch were a bit of a joint effort.

I just love how many buds are on this. This is one of three that have developed very large branching spikes over the last few months and all three are starting to open now. We must have had some good weather for spike development
