This is my white Phalaenopsis which I brought to Pittsburgh, PA from Tucson, AZ. I has been my favorite plant since I bought it at Trader Joe's while I lived in Arizona, and it has grown to a giant 20" leafspan. Refusing to skip a flowering period, I have noticed it spikes with every 2 leaves that it grows. And it grows and GROWS wherever it is located: cold vs. warm, dry vs. humid, high light vs. low light.... I have had it for a few years (picture was from late August '07)THE PERFECT orchid in my opinion, and I LOVE it dearly! I have noticed with each blooming, it produces at least one freak flower, either peloric, or in this case, with no lip at all. We all strive for the perfect Phal spray of flowers, but this does add a delightful bonus surprise with each flowering! What will it look like NEXT time?!?!?!?!
PS- my lovely african violet is featured in a photo as well!
