Another Phal. Little Sister
Mutant posts pics of her plant recently, and it turns out that mine is starting to bloom as well. This is the second blooming for it, though the first one from last summer doesn't really count since there were only 2 flowers!
I took some photos now, since I don't know if it retains the equestris parent's somewhat sequential blooming habit.
How I love equestris and its primary hybrids! 
The lip is not as orange as it appears in the photo, it's more of a dark pink. I'll see if I can improve it a bit in the post processing program.

Love both your Little Sister and you gorgeous picture of it. About the lip, I've noticed that when the flowers have just opened (on mine at least) the lip is RED, like red red you know. After some time, they get a more red/pinkish hue to them, but the colour of the lips are the closest to pure red I've ever seen on any Phal so far. And I agree with you, totally love equestris and their primary hybrids!

I think it looks more like Fantasy Musick, but with a different shape.  |
