Default Some new blooms

I love the farmer's market here. One of the plant tents always has this nice colorful selection of phals to drool over! and very reasonably priced too!

I see they sell mostly the same hybrids I saw last year, but there are some new and some I don't see anymore.
I should have kept that yellow and orange striped phal last year. I got rid of it thinking I would see it again this year, but nope!

Anyhow, the first one pictured is somethign I've never seen before at the market here. I love the color. it just pops out among others. I had to get it.

I had to look forever to pick the best one (to my eyes) among the three that were left.

The next two are NOID.
the first one is Nobby's Amy look-alike, and the next one is just very unique so I got it.
The little dots get bigger and bigger as they go near the center where they all sort of merge into one big purple mess.
I've never seen this one either.

These two NOIDs are smallish plants with rather big flowers for their body size.

The last one is Wedding Promenade.
I love this one. it always makes beautiful little tree with its pink lavendar blooms.

I need to take better pictures.
Especially the first one, it's just stunning! you have to see it in person.
